Mykonos, Greece

Mykonos occupies a unique position on this list: it is the only destination currently undergoing its set-jetting transformation in real time. Emily in Paris Season 6 began principal photography on the Greek island on May 18, 2026, with confirmed locations including Agios Sostis beach on the island's north coast, the iconic Kato Mili windmills overlooking Little Venice, the labyrinthine boutique-lined Matogianni Street, and the picturesque fishing harbour of Alefkandra (Little Venice). The Four Seasons Resort Mykonos, which opened in 2024 with infinity pools cantilevered over the Aegean, is widely expected to feature as a key accommodation location based on unit photography circulating online. The intelligence from the travel booking industry is already moving. Greek National Tourism Organisation data for May-June 2026 shows that enquiries for Mykonos in the autumn-winter 2026 and spring 2027 windows — traditionally shoulder-season periods for the island — are running 25-35 percent ahead of the equivalent 2025 period. This advance booking shift, before a single episode has aired, demonstrates the forecasting power of the Emily in Paris brand. The show's track record is explicit: Saint-Tropez (Season 2) sustained elevated summer bookings for three consecutive seasons; Rome (Season 5) recorded the 3,221 percent home-swap surge before transmission. Mykonos already attracts approximately 1.5 million visitors annually, making it one of the Aegean's busiest islands. Its combination of whitewashed Cycladic architecture, internationally recognised nightlife, high-end beach clubs (Scorpios, Alemagou), and accessible charter flight connections from 22 European cities positions it to absorb and benefit from the Netflix halo effect more effectively than smaller Greek islands with less existing tourism infrastructure. Season 6 is expected to begin streaming in late 2026 or early 2027, at which point the Mykonos set-jetting effect will become fully measurable.
