easyJet — Amsterdam → Chania (Crete) from July

easyJet opens Chania bookings from 1 July. This is a new Amsterdam–Chania direct connection — previously you had to route via Athens or book via TUI. Fares open at €149 return.

Price watch: Mediterranean fares are rising fast as summer approaches. Most of these new routes launched sales in the last 30 days. If any appeal, now is the right time — fares will increase materially through May and June.
