Flight
The wedding will be on June 4, 2025 -- we are leaving it up to our guests as to when they would like to arrive on the island. The bride and groom will be arriving a few days prior to the event to get situated and set up for the event. Flights will be from Chicago --> Heraklion, Crete airport There are two options for flight paths: 1. Chicago --> one stop (location TBD) --> Heraklion, Crete 2. Chicago --> Athens --> Heraklion, Crete We have talked to many of you and have discussed that many of you will be traveling to Europe earlier on to spend some personal time traveling before the wedding or even after. If you would like any help booking your tickets or have any questions regarding travel please feel free to reach out to us!
Rental Car
While there, we will personally be renting a car to get around the island as our villa/wedding location is about 25 min from the airport/the sea. Rental cars can be found on Kayak for around $25-30 USD per day. There is also BOLT (app) which is similar to Uber that you can use for transportation as well. If renting a car, from our experience it is recommended that you get an international driving license to avoid any issues. International drivers licenses are $20 and can be obtained at AAA either in person or online.
