This firm favourite will see us return to Greece to visit Andravida AB, home of the HAF Phantoms, to attend the popular Exercise Iniochos.
It will also feature a welcome return to the valleys for the chance to photograph low-level flying.
We will be basing ourselves near the Low-Level training area for two nights, ready to head to the Low-Level areas to seek out the exercise participants on Monday & Tuesday before the on-base spotters day on Wednesday 2nd April (which we cannot wait to attend once again!), and then another hunt before flying home on Thursday evening.
The trip will be available as Land Only (with flights available at additional cost from your choice of airport), or as Full Itinerary with flights from London included.
The Land Only cost of this trip is from £780 (twin-share) or £980 (single room), with LHR flights currently from £390.

This is a Land-Only trip and does not include the cost of flights, with quores availabel upon request from your local airport. COAP flights (as per the details above) are currently from £390 (as of 6th January 2025). You can meet us in London, or at Athens.
You may obtain your own flights from your preferred local airport but please note the timings need to match closely to the COAP timings detailed above.
Please be aware prices are changing daily and will only go up, so early booking is essential
Please ensure you do not book your flights until COAP has confirmed this trip is going ahead.
There is also an option to attend the Iniochos-0 trip the previous week and take part in a longer experience. Contact us directly at events@centreofaviationphotography.com and we will provide the cost for this.
If you are a British citizen then COAP will undertake the British Embassy application for you for this trip. You may still be required to fill in a Greek AF form for the Spotters Day on the base (and pay the entrance fee at the same time, usually €20).
Note: This is a military exercise and circumstances can change. If, for whatever reason, the exercise or Spotters Day is cancelled, then the trip will still proceed regardless. There is a higher chance of low-level action on Iniochos-0, but absolutely nothing is guaranteed on either trip.
