Cheap flights from Jerez to Athens

Athens is hot and dry in summer and mild in winter, with long days in summer and shorter ones in winter. April is the cheapest month in the fare calendar for this route, and the priced months run from October to June plus August. School holidays and the Christmas period often coincide with higher fares, so flexible travellers should compare April with the months around it. August appears in the price calendar but is not the lowest priced month. Midweek departures can be easier to price than weekend ones, and early morning or late evening flights are often the cheaper slots. Check the calendar before fixing dates, because the cheapest day moves around.

The five names on this route are not all the same kind of airline: some sell basic fares with extras charged separately, while others bundle more into the ticket. None flies direct, so every option connects, and the connection airport and minimum transfer time change with the carrier and fare. What is included also changes by fare family: checked baggage, cabin bag size, seat selection, priority boarding and change fees may be extra on one ticket and included on another. Compare the full price of the whole journey, not just the first fare you see. If your flights are on separate tickets, a delay on the first leg can leave you paying for the second.

Eleftherios Venizelos is Athens's main airport and a large one, so expect longer walks, possible queues and a busy arrivals process. Rail, metro and bus links run into central Athens, with taxis and car hire also available, but allow extra time in peak season or late at night. Check your terminal and arrival hall before meeting anyone, because the airport is spread out. Rail and metro are usually the straightforward choice for the city centre, while buses can suit late arrivals. Keep an eye on your bags in crowded transfer areas and confirm your onward transport before you leave arrivals.
