A valid uniform Schengen visa can let you enter Greece for short stays if it covers your travel dates, entries, and the 90/180-day stay cap. If you’ve got a Schengen visa sticker in your passport, Greece often fits right into the plan. Greece is part of the Schengen Area, so short-stay entry rules are shared

An empty metal water bottle can go through airport screening in carry-on or checked bags, as long as there’s no liquid left inside when you reach security. You’ve got the bottle. You’ve got the trip. Then the last-minute question hits in the security line: will that stainless steel bottle get pulled, swabbed, or tossed? The
