Nonstop Flights to Greece From 7 US Cities This Summer

The 2024 season will be a great one for direct flights from the US to Greece, as seven different airports and cities in the US offer nonstop flights to Athens. This includes Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Washington, Philadelphia, New York, and Newark.

There are no nonstop flights from the US to any other destinations in Greece, such as the popular islands of Santorini and Mykonos, but once you get to Athens, you can simply hop on a quick domestic flight to one of the islands.
