Baggage, seats and classes on the Brussels to Athens flight

Baggage is the item that most frequently changes the real cost of a flight from Brussels to Athens. Full-service fares typically include a checked bag and a cabin bag; low-cost fares start with a small cabin bag and add the rest. We tell you the allowance of the fare we send, and whether adding a suitcase at booking is cheaper than at the airport (it almost always is). Seats can be selected on most airlines for a fee or free at check-in; in economy and business the differences are space, meals and flexibility.

• Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare
• Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request
• Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy
• Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones

Flying with children, families and groups from Brussels to Athens

Three things to know about the flight from Brussels to Athens with children: infants under two fly on a lap, children get their own seat and usually a lower fare, and a folding pushchair goes free. Groups get seats together and, on many airlines, a group rate. Tell us the numbers and we handle the rest, including the transfer with enough room for everyone.

Things to do in Athens when you land

Piraeus is the port of Athens and the main gateway to the Aegean islands, linked to central Athens by metro in about half an hour. Start with the Temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion, Lycabettus Hill and the Panathenaic Stadium, then Delphi, a day away and the Athens Riviera beaches. A tip from our desk: If you continue by ferry, let us know the ship and its departure time - Piraeus is on the far side of the city from the airport and the desk times the transfer to the gate.

If you want the days in Athens organised - a driver, a guide, timed entry tickets - we do that too. Mention it in the WhatsApp chat.

Best time to fly from Brussels to Athens

April to June and September to October are ideal; July and August are very hot; winter is mild and quiet; the Attiki Odos motorway from the airport is quick outside rush hour. On the flight from Brussels to Athens, seasons show in fares more than in schedules: holiday departures fill first, so we recommend booking early for summer, Christmas, New Year, Eid and Easter journeys.

Return flight from Athens to Brussels

Coming back? Say so on the form. A return flight ticket from Athens to Brussels booked with the outbound is often cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.

How much is a flight from Brussels to Athens?

The cost of a flight from Brussels to Athens depends on the date, the time of day, the carrier, the fare class and how far ahead you book. Airlines sell seats in tiers that rise as the plane fills, so the same seat can cost several times more on a holiday weekend than on a quiet Tuesday. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price on this page: we look up the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost on WhatsApp, with the options side by side.

Let us know for two or three options and we send the cost of each - for example the cheapest fare with hand luggage only, the same flight with a checked bag, and the best-timed departure of the day - so the comparison is in front of you before you book.

Cheapest flight from Brussels to Athens: how to pay less

A cheap Brussels to Athens flight ticket is rarely luck. It is the right airline, the right day and the right fare class - which is what we check for you:

• Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more
• Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays
• Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are normally cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
• Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which frequently carry the lowest fares
• Tell us if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
• Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag

We answer "what is the cheapest way to fly from Brussels to Athens?" many times a day; the answer for your dates comes back by WhatsApp with the booking ready to confirm.

How to book flights from Brussels to Athens with Haqqi Tours

The easiest way to book a flight from Brussels to Athens is to let a person do it. The form asks for the essentials; the details - a window seat, an infant, extra baggage, a wheelchair, a special meal - you let us know through WhatsApp when we message you to confirm. We provide the ticket in your name, remind you of the check-in rules of that airline and stay reachable while you travel.

• Step 1 - send the form: date, one-way or return, adults and children, class
• Step 2 - we message you in the WhatsApp chat with the flights, the baggage included and the cost
• Step 3 - you confirm the flight you prefer and we arrange payment in the same chat
• Step 4 - we issue the e-ticket and send it; we stay in touch until you land in Athens

If plans change, the same chat handles it. We clarify the airline's change and refund rules for the fare you chose before you commit to anything, so there are no surprises later.

Airlines flying from Brussels to Athens

On the flight from Brussels to Athens you can choose between Aegean Airlines and Brussels Airlines. A full-service airline generally includes a checked bag, a meal and a flexible ticket; a low-cost fare is cheaper at the start and adds those items one by one. We provide both and tell you the total for the way you actually travel.

• Aegean Airlines - Brussels to Athens
• Brussels Airlines - Brussels to Athens

Departure: Brussels Airport (BRU)

Brussels Airport (BRU) is where the Brussels to Athens flight begins. Terminals, gates and closing times are in the confirmation we send, with a note on the airport's security and passport checks. Arrive with a proper margin; low-cost carriers in particular close bag drop strictly on time.

• Keep the passport or ID used for booking with the electronic ticket - names must match exactly
• Check the baggage included in your fare - we tell you before you book
• Haqqi Tours offers a private transfer from your hotel in Brussels to Brussels Airport
• Ask us about the terminal and fast-track options at Brussels Airport

Arrival: Athens International Airport (ATH) and getting into Athens

You arrive at Athens International Airport (ATH). Metro Line 3 runs from the airport to Syntagma in about 40 minutes and the X95 bus follows; a hotel on Plaka's pedestrian lanes, a ferry at Piraeus with a departure time, or a Riviera hotel is simpler by car from the terminal. If you would rather not think about it, we book a private transfer from the airport to your accommodation in Athens, with the driver tracking the flight in case it is late.

Onward flights or trains from Athens the same day can be added to the booking; tell us and we choose a Brussels to Athens departure that leaves a safe connection.
