Trip to Israel from Greece?
Hi! I’m planning a trip to Israel; the problem is that I’ll be in Greece first, and so far I haven’t found any way to get from Athens to Tel Aviv. No ferries, no plane… nothing! Does anyone know why is that? or if there’s actually any way to get there from Greece?
Thank you very much for your help!

Of course there’s a way! If you are in Athens, Olympic airlines, the national carrier has direct flights to Tel Aviv at very competitive prices. It’s not the best airline around, but still has all the standart requirements.
There are ferries from Southern Greek part of Cyprus to Israel…
A more adventerous route would be passing through Turkey,Syria and Jordan to Israel…Oh wait a minute..Syria and Israel… Nope take a ferry from Cyprus…
Humm I am sure there are some flights between greece and israel.Check Olympic Airlines and El Al Israeli Airlines.In the case you can’t find a flight you can travel to Istanbul…There are 4-5 flights daily between Istanbul and Tel Aviv…
I once took a night ferry from Limasol /Cyprus to Haifa; was a swift trip.
As for flights, have a look at;
