"Kalimera SKY express! Greece is one of the most popular travel destinations of the Austrians, and the new direct flight connection to Athens expands the flight offering to this region. Athens is the gateway to Greece's rich history and culture as well as the picturesque islands of the country. At the same time, we are benefiting from the growing demand from Greece, as Vienna is a popular destination, especially in the winter months.

"We are proud to inaugurate this direct connection between Athens and Vienna. This new route reflects our commitment to providing high-quality, year-round travel options with the youngest fleet in Greece. Austrian travelers now have the opportunity to explore not only the history and beauty of Athens but also benefit from seamless connections to the largest domestic network in the country. At the same time, Greek passengers can enjoy a direct and convenient flight to Vienna, a city known for its elegance and rich history. This addition to our international network addresses the growing needs of our passengers and strengthens the ties between our two countries.
