room with a view Posted June 26, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 26, 2022 We arrive back to Athens on October 2nd and our flight home is not until 22.45 .. allowing for transport to the airport , check in etc it's a very long day after leaving the ship. NCL offers a short tour then straight to the airport .. but still too soon for us. There must be other passengers with late flights ... any experience of this ? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdmlynek Posted June 26, 2022 #2 Share Posted June 26, 2022 We planned for the eventuality. Take X80 from the port to downtown, store your luggage, sightsee Athens, have a dinner, pick up your luggage, and head to the airport either on Metro or on X95 bus. (We took the X80-X95 sans sightseeing as we had a 14:30 flight). Here are luggage storage facility close to Syntagma square: (1) The Lockers Syntagma - Automated Luggage Storage Kolokotroni 9, Syntagma, Athina, off Stadiou, off Syntagma Square; across from National Historical Museum, 37.9773°N 23.7325°E; +30 693 241 2302 (2) Lockers4All 2 Nikis str, Athina 105 57, Greece, +30 694 562 4229; 37.9762°N 23.7334°E (3) Luggage storage in Athens Nikis 17, Athina 105 57, Greece; +30 21 0322 3531; 37.9745°N 23.7331°E Good luck!

room with a view Posted June 27, 2022 Author #3 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Thanks, we will see if the pre cruise hotel can store our luggage for a few hours then take a taxi from there to the airport . I'll also see if NCL have any extended tours on the 2nd October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, you need to make sure that your hotel is close to Syntagma Square. Carrying your baggage any long distances just to get to a hotel may get tiring.

Thanks the hotel is near Ermou Street. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
