About LinkBacksI've heard they are reasonably priced flights from ATH to Santorini but I have not gone so far as to look into it. 5 hours on a ferry is not appealing.

Not really.Originally Posted by SummerShi
It was going to be about $600 positive space for the three of us and a zed was going to be about $400.

Okay, that is far from reasonable. Guess the ferry wins. ;o)
are you talking RT air for 3 people?

Yes.....the ZED on OA for 3 is about $441

We need more trip reports. Thanks for the post.
As for Athens, do you think it would be a good place to take a teen & a pre-teen (my daughters) for spring break? I take them somewhere, just the 3 of us, each spring break. Our biggest drivers are seats up front and $70 or less hotels. After that I'm looking for safe public transport and something educational. I'm thinking ATH has history in spades.
Absolutely!
Our daughter(10 years old) got such a great history lesson on this trip. The prices were reasonable for Europe.
The metro, bus, and tram systems are very clean and safe.
The food is awesome!!!
I rarely like to repeat destinations because there are so many places I still want to visit, but we will return to Athens within the next year.

Typically tough to get seats up front for ATH due to cruises (crusielines offer upgrades at relatively low prices when bundled) Are you talking about next year spring break? I tried several times going with Boss but it was finally a reality in Jan 2 yrs ago.

Good stuff to know, thanks. The exchange rate is a killer these days, so finding reasonably priced hotels can be tricky. We are looking for something different next year and I think ATH could be it.
Mrs767er: Maybe spring break next year. I can live with flying in the back, but who wouldn't want to be up front?

Is your main goal mostly ancient history? What about Istanbul or Amman (when it comes back) along with Cairo?
Eastern Europe is still relatively affordable--choose countries that still have their own currency.
