Santorini

Flights will be available every Thursday from the start of May to the end of October. Santorini is officially known as Thera; it is found 120 miles Southeast of mainland Greece in the Aegean Sea. On social media, Santorini has been given the title of “Greece’s most instagrammable island”, to put it simply it is a beautiful island. Despite only being 30 square miles, there is plenty to do to occupy yourself. There are plenty of wineries which allow you to take a tour and try out different wine while you admire the breathtaking views. Thera is an ancient city that was inhabited in the 9th Century BC, you can still see some of the ruins there today. After you have had a busy day exploring, you can relax and watch the famous sunset at Oia for an unforgettable experience.

Skiathos

Starting from the end of May in 2021 and ending at the end of September you will be able to jet off to the sun in Skiathos. Also located in the Aegean Sea, Skiathos is even smaller at less than 20 square miles. This island is ideal for beach lovers, white sands that lay next to pearl blue waters will have you soaking up the sun all day long. There is plenty of places to grab something to eat within walking distance of the beaches, so there really is no excuse to leave. Many churches and Monasteries are scattered across the island each having their own unique look. In the evening take time to explore the local villages and enjoy a meal out in one of the many amazing restaurants.

Lisbon

You will be able to fly every Monday and Thursday making it ideal for long weekend breaks or a full week holiday. Lisbon is the capital of Portugal and also the largest city in the country. The city is packed with historical places of interest, the Belém Tower is one of the most popular. Jerónimos Monastery, Carmo Convent and Queluz National Palace are just a handful of other historical sites to add to your list.
