Flights from Quebec City (YQB) and Montreal (YUL) to Santorini, Greece
Here is what to know before booking a flight to Santorini from Quebec City and Montreal.
From Montreal, fares to Santorini usually run between $1250 and $1750. The best fare spotted recently is $1070 (about 21% below the typical price).
Santorini is one of Greece's most iconic islands, a crescent of cliffs formed by an ancient volcanic caldera in the Aegean Sea. It is famed for whitewashed villages, blue-domed churches, and sweeping sunset views. Perched above the shimmering caldera, every clifftop terrace feels like the best seat in the house, so come ready to be dazzled!
When to go
Late spring (May-June) and early fall (September-October) bring warm weather and fewer crowds than the July-August peak. Winters are quiet and mild, with many businesses closed.
Getting there from Quebec City and Montreal
From eastern Canada, reaching Santorini (JTR) means at least two connections, typically a transatlantic flight from Toronto or Montreal and then Athens or another European hub, with a short onward flight or ferry to the island. Service is strongest in the summer high season, so winter options thin out.
What to see and do
- Watching the sunset from Oia
- Wandering the caldera-edge paths of Fira
- Relaxing on the Red Beach
- Visiting the ancient ruins of Akrotiri
Good to know before you go
The currency is the euro and Greek is the language, though English is widely spoken. There is no rail; local buses run from a hub in Fira and taxis are handy, but renting an ATV or scooter is a fun, popular way to reach viewpoints and beaches, just note some agencies add a surcharge for riders under 25 and summer parking in Oia and Fira is tight. Book accommodation early and expect steep steps and busy summer crowds.
