Draft cheap return flights to Crete

Crete is like most Northern hemisphere countries. When the weather starts to drop, the tourists go home. The yearly holiday travel time is over and it is time to work for a living. The charter flights from the UK and other parts of Europe are done for the season and only the regularly scheduled flights are occurring.
Weekend travel is recommended for the lowest possible price. If you must travel during the week, then get a standby ticket for a chance at a low fare. Last minute purchases are possible just to fill in empty seats. Aegean Airlines can have an opening at the last minute or one day away for 271 British pounds from London to Crete.
