Route notes
Why this routing works
This routing keeps the trip simple: depart Porto, continue to Skopje for the longest stop, then add a shorter stop in Palermo before returning to Porto. With 7 nights in Skopje and 3 nights in Palermo, the sequencing gives the majority of the trip to the first stop and uses the second as a shorter add-on before heading home.
As a round-trip rather than an open-jaw, this itinerary starts and ends in the same city, which can make pre- and post-trip planning more straightforward. The ticket structure is built around two European stop points in one economy itinerary, instead of pricing each segment separately.
Timing also matters here. With departure in May, this is set up as a short multi-stop trip in the apr-jun season, covering roughly one week overall. For travelers comparing options, the key logistics are the fixed stop order, the 7-night and 3-night split, and an economy price range from USD 1,097 to USD 1,674.
