Wizz Air Announces AED 179 Flights To Santorini, Mykonos, Rhodes & Crete

Over 19 countries are now open to UAE residents and UAE’s budget carrier Wizz Air is offering tickets to four standing destinations at a throw away price! Earlier, the airline announced AED 179 flight ticket to Greece. And now, Wizz Air has added AED 179 flights to Mykonos, Rhodes and Crete. Well, that’s literally cheaper than our monthly grocery bill in the UAE, right?

Wizz Air Announces AED 179 Flights To Mykonos, Rhodes & Crete

Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, the newest national airline of the UAE, has announced an exciting list of new destinations in time for the summer. Amongst the new destinations include the idyllic Greek islands of Mykonos, Rhodes and Crete. Flights to Mykonos will start on 07 July, Crete on 09 July and Rhodes on 12 July.

The route to Mykonos will be operated twice per week on Wednesdays and Sundays. Rhodes will operate on Mondays and Fridays, which is also the same for Crete. Tickets will go on sale for Mykonos, Rhodes and Crete on 7 June 2021 on wizzair.com and the airline’s mobile app, with fares starting as low as AED 179 for all flights.

The new Greek destinations offer travellers a myriad of experiences, white sandy and secluded beaches, crystal clear waters, buzzing nightlife, and a wealth of historical sites and ancient treasures to discover. The announcement comes as the UAE has established a travel corridor for Greece and brings Wizz Air Abu Dhabi’s flight network to a total of 29 destinations.

Wizz Air Is Offering One Way Flights To Santorini For As Low As AED 179

Abu Dhabi’s budget airline, Wizz Air, is now operating a direct flight from Abu Dhabi to Santorini, and that too, with fares starting from AED 179. However, there’s a slight catch. No, there’s no insane airport taxes or something, but it’s just that- this price is for a one-way direct airfare ticket, which still is a crazy deal.

UAE Travellers Need Not Quarantine On Arrival In Greece

The direct flight services will function from July 2 and fly to Santorini twice a week, Monday and Friday. You can book the tickets on wizzair.com and their mobile app. We recently checked Wizz Air’s site and found out that you can now get the lowest fairs in August, and the fare includes one carry-on bag too. The rates start from AED 179, and they range between AED 200-300, which is a steal. The return flights at present are expensive, considering they don’t include checked luggage. So getting a one-way ticket for as low as AED 179 is insane. 

And if you are planning to visit Santorini, you must know that you don’t need to undergo quarantine on arrival. You have to provide a negative PCR test taken not more than 72 hours ago before the arrival. And you also need to have a certificate, which proves that you are vaccinated. Children 5 years of age and under are exempted. The vaccination needs to have been completed at least 14 days before arrival to Greece.

Besides Santorini, Wizz Air also operated two other flights a week to Athens and Thessaloniki.
