Departure: Paphos International Airport (about 10 km from Paphos) (PFO)

Your journey starts at Paphos International Airport (about 10 km from Paphos) (PFO). We tell you the terminal for your airline, when check-in and bag drop close, and whether the airport has fast-track security worth booking. There is no railway in Cyprus; public buses link the airport with Kato Paphos and the town and suit a light traveller with a hotel near the harbour, while Coral Bay, Polis, Latchi and Aphrodite Hills, or a family with luggage, are much simpler by private car.

• Haqqi Tours can provide a private transfer from your accommodation in Paphos to Paphos International Airport (about 10 km from Paphos)

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

Arrival is at Athens International Airport (ATH), and the first decision is how to reach the city. Athens is the Acropolis above a modern city, with the port of Piraeus for the island ferries and Athens International (ATH) about 30 km east of the centre; Cape Sounion, Delphi and the Saronic islands are the classic day trips. We provide airport transfers in Athens with a driver at arrivals, and we also tell you honestly if the train or metro from the airport is the better choice for where you are staying.

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

Baggage, seats and classes on the Paphos to Athens flight

Baggage is the item that most often changes the real cost of a flight from Paphos to Athens. Full-service fares generally 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.

• Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
• Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
• Seat selection free or paid depending on the airline; families seated together on request
• Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare

Flying with children, families and groups from Paphos to Athens

Families fly the Paphos to Athens route with us every week. Infants under two travel on a lap at a small fare; children have a seat and a child fare where the carrier offers one; pushchairs are checked free at the gate on most airlines. We seat the family together, order children's meals where they exist and choose a departure time that suits nap and bedtime. For groups, we book the seats in one reservation and ask the airline for a group fare where the numbers justify it.

Things to do in Athens when you land

Lycabettus Hill, the Panathenaic Stadium, Delphi, a day away, the Athens Riviera beaches and the Acropolis and the Parthenon are what most passengers come to Athens for. Athens is the Acropolis above a modern city, with the port of Piraeus for the island ferries and Athens International (ATH) about 30 km east of the centre; Cape Sounion, Delphi and the Saronic islands are the classic day trips. Eat loukoumades, a frappé in Plaka and souvlaki and gyros while you are there.

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

Best time to fly from Paphos to Athens

Flights from Paphos to Athens run all year, daily. 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. If you can travel outside those weeks the same seat costs less and the airports are quieter. Whatever the month, early booking is the single biggest saving.

Return flight from Athens to Paphos

We book the return leg from Athens to Paphos just as easily, normally on the same ticket. Booking both directions together lets us compare a return fare against two singles - on some airlines the return is much cheaper, on others two one-ways with different carriers win. Tell us the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.

How much is a flight from Paphos to Athens?

"How much is the Paphos to Athens flight?" is the question we get most, and the honest answer is that it moves every day. Low fares open months ahead and disappear as seats sell; peak seasons, school holidays and the most convenient departure times cost more; a fare with a checked bag and a flexible ticket cost more than a hand-luggage-only seat. Haqqi Tours arranges the current cost for the date you travel within minutes of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.

The figure we send is the total: ticket, taxes and the baggage included in that fare. If a departure two hours earlier is cheaper, or a different airline includes a suitcase for the same money, we say so, because the cheapest Paphos to Athens flight is often not the one at the top of a search.

Cheapest flight from Paphos to Athens: how to pay less

The cheapest flight from Paphos to Athens is usually booked early, flown mid-week and chosen with the baggage you actually need. These are the rules our staff applies on every booking:

• Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays
• Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are typically cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
• Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which often carry the lowest fares
• Let us know 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
• Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day

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