Several airlines, including Turkish Airlines and United Airlines, are offering a sale on flights to Greece from Chicago….roundtrip flights are as low as $674. While this doesn’t fall during the peak summer travel period, Greece can get pretty crowded then, so visiting during the off-season can avoid the crowds (and also has the advantage of lower hotel rates).
Thessaloniki is the second largest city in Greece, and offers easy access to just about anywhere else…it’s a quick 45 minute flight to Athens, Santorini, or other beautiful islands. I’ve found that Athens is a good city to visit for about 2-3 days, and then I would highly recommend getting out to see some of the other islands. This fare to Thessaloniki would give you a taste of Greek life in a less touristy area, and let you hop around to other parts of the country. Flights within Greece are very reasonably priced – as low as $40 each way, so it wouldn’t take much to turn this into a full Greek vacation.
This fare is available for the month of November, and the weather in Greece can still be quite nice during that time of the year. Crete is about 10 degrees warmer (59°-79° in November). It’s not quite beach weather, but would be very comfortable for sightseeing….average highs are around 60° with lows around 45°. Earlier in the month tends to have less rain.
The calendar below shows the fare available for most days throughout the month of November:
