Hi
We have been visiting Plakias as independant travellers for some years now, and like many we don't 'do' night flights. For the last 2 years we have used Brittania Airways, leaving from either Stansted or Luton (depending on which days we want to travel), and their times are very user friendly, leaving at about 8.30 am and arriving 2.20 pm in Heraklion. We have never had a problem using them.
