Announcing order for 6 additional Airbus A350-900s ! 

 

Eariler today, Olympus signed an order consisting of 6 brand new A350-900s. These additional A350s will help expand our Long Haul network and decrease the utilization of the rest A350s in order to make sure that every flight served by one of our A350s is always on time. 

New services launched & Route Updates !  

Olympus is proud to announce seven new destinations ! New flights from Athens to Dubai, Paris Charles De Gaulle, Amsterdam, Vienna, Bucharest and Kos have began. All flights (except the ATH-DXB one which will have a frequency of double daily on an A350-900) will operate three times daily. 

Starting on Sunday, passengers will get the chance to fly from Larnaca to Rome directly on our brand new CS300 ! The LCA-FCO route will operate two times per day.

With the lease of yet another A340-500, Olympus increased the frequency of the Athens-Sydney route to daily ! Also, a schedule change has been implemented on all Long Haul flights so that passengers connecting to European cities via Athens won't wait more than 2 hours for their next flight. 

Our first A350-1000 arrives tomorrow ! 

Olympus' first Airbus A350-1000 will land in Athens tomorrow (Saturday July 7th) ! For the spotters who want to share this wonderful moment with us, our first A350-1000 will arrive from runway 03R at 7:40 pm. A massive ceremony will take place in Athens Airport and everyone's welcome to come celebrate with us ! The ceremony starts at 6 pm. More details can be found on our website, on the airport's main entrance, on our ticket booth as well as on the airport's info desk. 

In our Business Class and Economy Class Lounges, as well as in our ticket/info booth, passengers can apply for our special A350-1000 competition ! Nine people will win two round trip tickets for the A350-1000's inaugural flight from Athens to Chicago ! 

A350-1000 new seat layout announced

After a last minute decision, we decided to slightly change our seat configuration for our upcoming A350-1000s. The new cabin will include 252 Economy Class seats, 38 Aether (Premium Economy) seats and 42 Aeolus (Business Class) seats.
