Worth knowing

Before you fly Aegean Airlines

Aegean is Greece's flag carrier, flying via Athens. Good service for the price; the basic 'Go Light' fare has no bag. A Star Alliance member — miles shared with Lufthansa and Austrian.

Athens is handy for connecting to the Greek islands, but domestic flights are often not on one ticket with the international leg — check whether your bag transfers automatically.
