We're traveling with family to Santorini next April. I'm trying to figure out how to coordinate ferry schedules with airline schedules from the states. Is there any site that could give me an idea of what the schedules would be like then? There will be 9 of us. Should we consider chartering a small plane?
I've done this a couple of times. My choice was to catch a flight from from Athens airport to Santorini --
Aegean Airlines (much better than Olympic) has several flights a day. Since I was flying from North America and I get jet lag badly, I stayed the first night in the Athens Airport Sofitel (expensive but very convenient) to recover and took the first flight to Santorini at 5am the next morning. Flying into Santorini over the caldera at dawn was an unforgettable experience.
