AEGEAN Airways introduces new flight from London to Larnaka.
AEGEAN is now operating a daily flight from London Heathrow (Terminal 4) to Larnaca International Airport on a AIRBUS A320 designed to cater for Economy and Business Class passengers with an in-flight entertainment system including movies and a choice of music through 6 channels.
Overall, with its new summer program, AEGEAN will offer direct flights from Larnaka to London and Paris and another eight destinations in Greece.
Vice Chairman of AEGEAN, Mr. Eftychios Vassilakis stated, " Our decision to establish a base in Cyprus was reached mainly because of the improved facilities and quality of operations at the airport following the creation of the new Larnaka airport, which has now been operating for one and a half years”. At the same time, Mr. Vassilakis stressed AEGEAN’s interest in exploring, through cooperation with local authorities, the possibility of adding other destinations in Western Europe, Eastern Europe and the Middle East and said: "Our goal is to serve Cyprus with dedication to quality which we believe characterizes our company, in order to cover the needs of the island and contribute to an increase in tourism”.
May 2011 marks the seventh year of operations by AEGEAN in Cyprus, which started with flights from Athens and Thessaloniki. During these 7 years 2.5 million passengers have been transported to and from Larnaka airport, and in 2010 alone there were 3,400 scheduled flights. A total of 4,800 flights are scheduled for 2011, which represents a 41% increase on 2010, while available seats will reach 900,000, a figure 40% higher compared to 2010.
