From where to where.
I couldn't find any direct flights.
Where did you look?
And how hard?
TUI have flights from MAN to Rhodes and Crete (Heraklion) on 14th July.
There's only one airport on Rhodes so I'd expect the flight to land there.
There may be flights to Chania (Crete's other airport) on 14/7 but I didn't check that far.
Not sure about Kos.
Not looked at other holiday companies/airlines but the OP has a number to check out.
If the departure date is fixed, the OP will obviously have less options than if they are flexible by a couple of days.0 -
Are you serious?
To my knowledge, Crete has 2 airports, Rhodes & Kos have one each.
My crystal ball is cloudy. Where do you want to fly from:cool:
Crete actually has 3 international airports, but I don't think the smaller one (Sitia) has any flights from the UK.Let's settle this like gentlemen: armed with heavy sticks
On a rotating plate, with spikes like Flash Gordon
And you're Peter Duncan; I gave you fair warning0 -

It's your money. Except if it's the governments.0

It's a bit of a hijack of the OP's thread - but not sure they're coming back.slinga said:
I'm going to Crete (Chania) in June and Kos end of August.
Both from Birmingham, flying TUI and Jet2.
Where have you looked so far?
Flights and holidays are out there.
Your biggest decision is probably which resort to choose.0 -
I didn't want to book a package.I looked on Flightradar at the three islands and the airports on the three islands and didn't see any dep or arrivals to or from the UK.It's your money. Except if it's the governments.0

That’s because it is the winter. Few if any ex U.K. flights fly to the Greek Islands between November - April.slinga said:I didn't want to book a package.I looked on Flightradar at the three islands and the airports on the three islands and didn't see any dep or arrivals to or from the UK.
Flightradar24 is more a here and now source.
Try Skyscanner.net for your search but be careful of clicking on random advertised links to booking sites.

We'll, you now know that's clearly wrong because there are arrivals and departures to and from the UK.slinga said:I didn't want to book a package.I looked on Flightradar at the three islands and the airports on the three islands and didn't see any dep or arrivals to or from the UK.
Maybe you'd be better talking to a travel agent if you're having problems finding flights when they clearly do exist.0
