The flight out that I'm looking at leaves at 6:50 so I was thinking we should try to be back at the airport around 5 to be safe especially if we aren't able to check our bags straight through from Crete.

Hhmmm...maybe we will have to go for the early morning flight, as painful as that might be, so that we'll have enough time to see the Acropolis. Thanks again for the feedback. It's all definitely very helpful!!
I meant to type 60min, not enough coffee (or sleep) in Athens . Probably 45min is possible without any wait.

I enjoyed having dinner at the Blue Door, excellent Greek food and view of Spinalonga island.
