Connections, luggage, documents and timing — crowd-sourced advice from readers who make the trip every year.

We asked readers how they plan the winter trip home. The answers were detailed, practical and occasionally very funny. Here are the most common tips.
Book connections with breathing room
Most routes between Greece and Algeria involve a connection. Readers recommend leaving generous layover time, especially in the busy holiday period, and checking baggage rules for each airline on your itinerary.
Check your documents before you go
Make sure your passport and Greek residence permit are both valid for your return date. If your permit renewal is pending, carry proof of your application and check the rules for re-entry before you travel.
