Preparing to begin Codeshare Agreements

We are very excited to announce that we are preparing to begin negotiations with airlines for Codeshare Agreements. After taking into account our always growing network, we will start negotiating with the airlines that will benefit both sides and make travelling for passengers easier. The first few announcements are set to go public within the end of July. 

While we are set to begin negotiations with some key players in the commercial aviation market, suggestions and proposals about Codesharing are welcome ! 

Launch of our Frequent Flyer Program

Along with our first few Codeshare Agreements, we are almost ready to launch our new Frequent Flyer Program ! Our new program is set to launch in the coming weekend. More details will be posted then. 

Destination Campaigns

With the introduction of new destinations in our network, we'd like to familiarize our passengers with them. We are planning to focus on one region per campaign, such as Central Europe, The Balkans etc. The first campaign is planned to be announced next Saturday.

Fleet Modifications and new orders 

Earlier this week Olympus changed the order of the final two A220-300s from the original order of 15 aircraft of the same type for two additional A320neos. This tweak means that the overall A220-300 fleet will consist of 13 aircraft. Furthermore, Olympus leased three used A321neos bringing the overall number of the type to 15.

Finally, a few hours later it went public that Olympus signed a lease agreement for 15 brand new Airbus A350-1000s as well as 8 new and 2 used A350-900s. Regarding the new order, the CEO of the airline, Spyros V., mentioned : " We're delighted that we have partnered with Airbus for yet another order for their A350 family of aircraft. Ever since our first A350-900 joined the fleet, we've seen some incredible margins. Our passengers love it and so do we. Demand for Long Haul flights to and from Athens is still very strong and seeing that 2018 is going to be yet another record breaking year, we decided that we should expand our intercontinental reach. We're looking forward to announcing our new destinations, so stay tuned for that ! "
