eg
LUX-FRA-ATH-SKG/HER-ATH-FRA-LUX
or
LUX-FRA-MUC-ATH-SKG/HER-ATH-MUC/FRA-LUX
but really difficult to find, only with 1 night in HER/SKG or ATH
I was also looking for SD 4 legs, but is very difficult to find ones
X-ATH-SKG/HER-ATH-X
yeah, we know

Now on the subject. It is very difficult to do 4 segments ex-Germany, because there aren't that many options (German airports) with multiple (Aegean) flights per day. Frankfurt and Munich come to mind, but Aegean will still not "allow" you to book SD returns with 4 segments, due to very small turn-around windows. You can book these separately, but this will be a huge risk! For example you can do 3 segments on the outbound MUC-AAA-BBB-HER and then take the direct flight back, or vise-versa or you can do 2+2 segments, but all these options offer about 40min turnaround time at best (and since you can only book that on separate tickets, you're not protected). What you can actually book that gets you 4 segments during the same day ex Germany is an open jaw like MUC-AAA-HER / HER-AAA-HAJ (works on Thursdays thanks to the late flight SKG-HAJ). But that's going to be a problem when your base is LUX of course.
