Hello Fodorites - need to please both families and must plan a trip to both Greece and Italy next year (08') Having visited both before without child, I need alternate routes this time. The ferry is NOT an option. Would like your opinions on airlines that were reliable near/on-peak season (June-July), rates, flight times, etc. My agenda for now is JFK- Athens (10 days touring around) - Bari (7days) - JFK. I have my flight from JFK-Athens-Rome-JFK. Need suggestions on airlines and routes in between. Would love to hear from those who are doing it or who have done it this summer! Thanks!

Hi TB - Airlines and routes between ... where?

Athens - Rome, Corfu & Rome, Corfu and Bari. Thanks

So where do you actually want to go?
"Athens - Rome, Corfu & Rome, Corfu and Bari" doesn't seem to make much sense as an itinerary. A ferry is the obvious option if you need to get from Corfu to Bari.

Ok, here's my ideal itinerary: JFK to Athens. IN Athens 3 days and on to Corfu by plane or ferry (any thoughts??), Corfu to Bari, Italy (plane or ferry??), Bari to Rome, Rome to JFK. My flights from JFK-Athens and Rome-JFK are complete. I need thoughts on the in-between stuff!

You can fly Athens-Corfu and Bari-Rome, but I would rather doubt that you will find, even in high season, flights from Corfu to Bari, so thst would have to be by ferry.
