How much is a flight from Zakynthos to Athens?

The cost of a flight from Zakynthos to Athens depends on the date, the time of day, the airline, 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 check the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost in the WhatsApp chat, with the options side by side.

What the price we send includes: the ticket in the fare class you chose, the taxes and airport charges, the baggage that fare carries, and our service - comparing the airlines, booking, sending the e-ticket and helping if the flight changes. We tell you clearly if a bag or a seat costs extra on that fare.

Cheapest flight from Zakynthos to Athens: how to pay less

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

• 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
• Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we look up
• 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

Send us the form with your dates and we tell you which departure is the cheapest flight from Zakynthos to Athens that day and what a slightly different day would cost.

Arrival: Athens Eleftherios Venizelos Airport (ATH) and getting into Athens

Arrival is at Athens Eleftherios Venizelos Airport (ATH), and the first decision is how to reach the city. 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. 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 Zakynthos to Athens departure that leaves a safe connection.

Baggage, seats and classes on the Zakynthos to Athens flight

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

Travelling with children? Put the ages on the form: infants and children have different fares and different baggage allowances, and we apply both. Groups - a company, a school, a wedding party - are booked together so everyone sits in the same section and one confirmation covers the whole party. Haqqi Tours also provides the minivans and Sprinters that carry a group between the airport and the hotel at both ends.

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.

Return flight from Athens to Zakynthos

We book the return leg from Athens to Zakynthos 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.
