Flights to Greece are currently available for a crazy low price of $280 round-trip. This deal was first spotted by Scott's Cheap flights earlier today, but we're happy to report it's still live.
This is a deal you're going to want to book ASAP as it's not one we see often. One thing to note is that this deal is only available on select dates in May, but the beauty of this is that it's right before the high season begins so you could score some great deals on usually high-priced hotels and Airbnbs.
If you haven't fully convinced someone else to book this deal with you, let them know that they have 24-hours to cancel fee free.
