This year, the airline’s flight program includes direct flights to many Russian cities from Thessaloniki, Athens, Corfu, Zakynthos and Heraklion and to cities in the Ukraine from Thessaloniki, Corfu and Heraklion. Riga in Latvia will also be connected directly to both Thessaloniki and Corfu.

From Thessaloniki, passengers this year will be able to fly direct to Tbilisi in Georgia, Astana in Kazakhstan, Tallinn in Estonia, Izmir, Budapest, Bucharest, Belgrade, Larnaca in Cyprus and to three cities in Italy: Rome, Milan and Verona.

Ellinair expects to add more flights by the launch of the summer season.
