In April, we are planning to go from Istanbul to Cappadocia, then want to go to a Greek Island (thinking Rhodes) before ending in Athens. What is the best way to get from Cappadocia to a Greek island? Not seeing direct from from the airports that serve Cappadocia and would prefer not going back to Istanbul.

Using Skyscanner, it looks like flying from Cappadocia to Dalaman Airport (with transfer in Istanbul) is 4+/- hours, then 1-1/2 hours taxi, or car hire, to Marmaris, then the ferry to Rhodes.
Or flying from Cappadocia to Rhodes (with transfers in Istanbul and Athens) is 9 +/- hours.

If you're set on Rhodes, you could also fly to Antalya, take a bus to Fethiye, then a ferry for a very long travel day. If you're not set on Rhodes, you could fly to Izmir, take the bus to Kusadasi, and take the ferry to Samos. Less of a long travel day but still a long day.
