[NAGDU] Traveling to Greece

[Roger Newell]

You may not necessarily need to stop in another country before going to Greece.

Emirates offers daily year-round nonstop flights from Newark airport.
United offers seasonal (summer) flights from Newark airport.
Delta offers seasonal (summer) flights from John F. Kennedy airport.
American offers seasonal (summer) flights from Philadelphia airport.

Though not in the United States, Air Canada Rouge offers flights to Athens.

Many European airlines offer short connection times if you do have to
stop in another European country.

You may find that Greek people are unaware of service dogs, and
consequently you may experience more discrimination than you are
accustomed to.
