Alexandria is served primarily by Borg El Arab Airport (HBE), a regional airport positioned as a convenient international gateway rather than a large global hub. It typically handles a mix of legacy and low-cost carriers offering seasonal and scheduled connections to Cairo, the Gulf and some European destinations; fares can be perceived as moderate to budget-friendly depending on carrier and timing. The airport lies about 40–50 km southwest of Alexandria’s city center; road transfer by taxi or private car usually takes 40–60 minutes, while shuttle buses and occasional coach services can take 60–90 minutes with lower fares. Borg El Arab is often praised for quick processes and shorter queues than big hubs, though public transport options are limited and travel times can swell in heavy traffic.

Fly direct from Alexandria to Athens for the quickest, most convenient way to reach the heart of Greece—less time in transit and more time exploring sunlit plazas and historic sites.

Athens International Airport (ATH), located about 20 km east of central Athens, is Greece’s main international gateway and a full-service hub for both legacy carriers and many low-cost airlines. Aegean Airlines and Olympic Air operate significant scheduled services, while Ryanair, EasyJet and others serve budget routes. Expect fares to vary widely—domestic and regional options can be economical while long-haul flights tend to be pricier. Ground links include the metro (Line 3, ~40 minutes to Syntagma), suburban rail (~30–40 minutes) and express buses (~40–60 minutes), with taxi rides typically taking 30–50 minutes depending on traffic; fares range from moderate to higher for taxis. The airport is modern and well-equipped, convenient for connections but can be busy in peak season; travelers trade proximity for sometimes longer transfer times and seasonal crowds.
