Earlier this year, Emirates began flying the New York City area to Athens route. When they did, they launched with some very great fares and also the only non-stop option to fly around the world. And finally, in true Dubai-owned form, this flight is the only one to offer a true 3 class flight featuring their awesome first class (without the shower since it is not their A380). Now, they are at it again with a great deal to give you Athens for as low as $391 – if you fly with another person. Otherwise, you can do it for $449!

But, if you buy for two people on the same reservation, that ticket price drops to as low as $391 per person! These types of prices are nothing new for flights from Greece to the US but to go from the US to Greece it is a great deal!

Takeaway
As someone who flies between the US and Greece fairly often, I am excited about this deal and the fact that Emirates flies this route yearround. Many people think of Greece as a summertime destination but there are still some beautiful (and cheap) places off-season as well! Check out some of those island resort prices in October – one day may cost as much as $800 per night and the next it can drop to $200!
