Flying from London Stansted
Stansted is built around Ryanair, with over 200 routes and the airport's single Norman Foster terminal optimised for fast turnarounds. The Stansted Express runs to Liverpool Street in 47 minutes; the airport sits 34 miles northeast of central London. Fares from Stansted are typically the cheapest of the London airports, especially on Eastern European, Italian and Iberian routes — the trade-off is fewer full-service options and a longer ground transfer at both ends.
Arriving in Athens
Athens International is Greece's main hub and Aegean Airlines' base, 30 km southeast of the city. Metro Line 3 reaches Syntagma Square in 40 minutes for €9. Athens is the gateway for Greek-island connections — most passengers transfer to a domestic Aegean or Olympic flight. UK fares peak in July and August; April–early June and September–October offer the best price-to-weather ratio.
