That way you will know if you can get in. Reply Ronnie Cohen 30 August 2020 - 11:57 I made my first booking to Athens in November 2019. Since then I’ve rebooked 4 times. My new flight is September 25. My booking is confirmed and we have our seats. How will I know I’m of the 1200 a week allowed in? We are planning to go to Agistri island. Can we still go? I don’t want to be restricted to Athens. I’m sure the island is safer. Thank you Ronnie Cohen Reply Ariel M 27 August 2020 - 19:59 Hi, I’m traveling mid-September from Israel. I bought a ticket with Ryanair. How do I know if I’m within the 1200 approved visitors that will be allowed? Thanks Reply Leave a Reply to Been Cancel Reply Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment. Δ
