National strikes severely impact Greece flights

June 29th, 2011

Flight Global
By Alan Dron

Flights to and from Greece are being severely affected as two national strikes sweep across the country to protest the government’s austerity plans.

All flights using Greek airports have been cancelled for the duration of strikes by air traffic controllers between 06:00-10:00 and 18:00-22:00 local time on 28 and 29 June.

By 10:00 GMT Greece’s largest airline, Aegean Airlines, said it had so far cancelled 26 flights and planned to reschedule a further 97 throughout the day. It added that it planned to cancel 31 flights and reschedule a further 82 on 29 June as a result of the dispute.

Olympic Air said that the 28 June strike had led it to cancel 39 round trips and reschedule 24.

Public transport to and from Athens Airport has also been stopped by the strike.

New New York to Athens Airline

May 30th, 2011

A new flight route from New York to Athens will be inaugurated on June 24th. Regional manager, Giorgos Kessanis of Hellenic Imperial Airways declared: ” It’s very appealing to me, how homogenous Greeks responded to the new airline, because there will be another Greek company now and the Greek flag will be waving again at the International Kennedy Airport (JFK). Mr. Kessanis, who previously was the manager of Olympic Airlines in USA, underlined that ”the company got the permission from the American authorities to serve the New York airline from Kennedy airport to El. Venizelos Greek airport and vice versa.”

“The first flight will take place from Athens to New York, on Friday 24th June and the return flight will be the day after. The planes, according to Mr. Kessanis, will be 4 Airbus 340, constructed from 2001 to 2003. In the VIP class, there will be two levels, with 8 first-class seats which also become beds and another 24 business class seats. Also, regarding the security of the planes, he stressed that ”the crew and in particular, the pilots of the planes are ex-colleagues with many years of flying experience who worked for the Olympic Airlines. Mr. Kessanis mentioned that ” one of the most important benefits that the company offers is the price of air tickets. Since Olympic air flights have stopped, there was basically a monopoly in the America-Greece flights and prices have inflated. Our prices will vary between at least 150 and maximum 300 dollars, less than the already existing prices per ticket. A ticket’s price will start from the price of 890 dollars if return is booked. Finally, Mr. Kessanis underlined that this Hellenic Imperial Airways airline will begin with 4 flights per week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday).
