Flights FAQs
Frequently asked questions about our flights to Zakynthos.
WHICH AIRLINES FLY TO ZAKYNTHOS/ZANTE?
On Saturdays, British Airways, EasyJet, Thompson, TUI and Jet2 all fly direct to the island from London Airports. On Sundays, the two main airlines that fly are EasyJet and Thompson. There are other airlines, so we recommend you look on skyscanner.net. If you are flying from another Greek island it’s worth looking at Sky Express for easy, quick and good value flights to the island.
