early flight and hotel info
 
My flight out of Athens back to the U.S. is at 5:35 in the morning. I know the general rule is to be at the airport 1.5-2 hours before the flights, but does anyone know if the check-in area will even be open at 3:30? Does anyone know the hours of the place that stores luggage? Thanks.

I can't answer your question, but you'll get many more replies if you re-post your question with specific info in the title. I'd at least put "Athens" in the title.

Good luck!

The luggage storage at the airport is open 24 hours, and the check-in desk will be open at 3:30am, as will many/most of the shops in the airport terminal. There are many early morning flights out of Athens, so you won't be alone.

Thanks. It's funny, I don't know what I put hotel info in the subject, I didn't ask a question about a hotel.

Hi, Shellee. Call the airline or check their web page to find out the opening time of the check-in desk. I have found that check-in desks generally open at least 2 hours before the first flight, even for a flight as early as yours.

Thanks so much.
