Ryanair adds half-term flights to Greek islands
Ryanair is offering extra flights from London Stansted, Birmingham and Manchester to the Greek islands of Crete and Santorini for October half-term.
The extra flights start from Birmingham to Crete on 24 October, from Stansted to Santorini and Crete and from Manchester to Crete on 25 October.
Fares start at £49.99.
Greece, with the exception of the island of Mykonos, has a travel corridor with the UK so visitors don’t have to quarantine on returning to the UK.
But UK holidaymakers to Greece must fill out a passenger locator form at least 24 hours before travel, and they might be asked to take a Covid-19 test on arrival and required to self-isolate until they get the result 24 hours later.
