SKY express launched on Saturday, June 5, 2021, another international destination, which was added to Brussels and Larnaca, with the direct flight Athens-Paris. Its state-of-the-art fleet of Airbus A320neo will connect Charles de Gaulle Airport with Athens International Airport initially on a weekly basis, while direct flights from Heraklion are expected to start soon.
SKY express is constantly expanding its flight program abroad and uniting two historic European capitals. Paris is the third key city in the company’s network, actively supporting the national economy.
In addition, from July the passenger public to and from Paris will have at its disposal two alternative routes. Depending on their planning and desires, visitors will be able to choose either Athens with the possibility of moving to the largest network of destinations in the country, or Crete.
Regardless of the choice, all travelers have a unique travel experience, such as that offered by SKY express at affordable and highly competitive fares and with personalized digital services.
As Mr. Theodoros Krokidas, President of SKY Express emphasizes: “We are committed to offering the Greek and international passenger public competitive fares, quality options and an unrivaled travel experience. Our arrival in Paris is another proof of our intention to be at the forefront of the preference of demanding travelers. We are only at the beginning, the great journey of SKY express is just beginning! ”
As the flight was arriving at the Paris de Charles de Gaulle airport on June 5, Marc Houalla, executive director of the Paris-Charles de Gaulle Airport, said: “The airport team welcomes SKY express to the Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport. The moment is ideal as the “new” renovated terminal 2B will offer SKY express and its passengers a high level of quality services in a functional, spacious, bright and attractive environment.
