AEGEAN has increased the frequency of flights on existing routes. From Athens, the airline now operates four daily flights to Istanbul and five weekly flights to Izmir. Furthermore, new direct connections between Istanbul and several Greek islands — Heraklion, Mykonos, Rhodes, and Santorini — will be introduced in the summer of 2025. From April 2025, Heraklion and Santorini will be connected to Istanbul with two weekly flights, increasing to four during the peak season. Mykonos and Rhodes will also see new direct flights to Istanbul starting in June, with two weekly flights on each route.

Thanks for posting. I'm trying to figure out when to book us back to Istanbul from Athens; looks like a number of choices --

Hi,
I haven't been to the Greek islands before, but I’ve had the chance to visit the Princes’ Islands in Istanbul. What are the historical, cultural, or natural similarities and differences between them? In particular, how do they compare in terms of architecture, lifestyle, and tourist attractions? What do you think?
