OK

There is only once 'cheap' flight to Corfu and that is EasyJet?

Total costs for the three of you including Taxes etc are as follows:

OUTBOUND FLIGHT:

Friday 30 May £88.99

Saturday 31 May £112.32

Sunday 1 June £88.99

RETURN FLIGHT:

Friday 6 June £54.12

Saturday 7 June £94.16

Sunday 8 June £69.16

So out on the 30 May and return on the 8 June would be my choice, with a total cost of £158.15 [img]/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Many options for outbound to Athens, including BA, 3 times a day! Their singles booked well ahead come at around £80. Of course, Easyjet also, similar price, worse timing, less comfort.

Cheapest return from Corfu at that time of year, if you don't mind a bit of risk and can be flexible on date, is to wait for an empty charter seat (many available on that date), obtainable through any of many travel agents in Corfu. Typically, £60. Otherwise, book ahead with Easyjet.

Try the Aegean Airways website. They have a new A320 Airbus service flying daily Stansted - Athens from early May. One way Stansted - Athens on 31st May only 63 Euros! Good connecting flights to most major Greek islands with same airline. Easyjet have bought GB Airways from British Airways and start daily Corfu - Gatwick flights also in May.
