Northern Germany seems to be “voting for Greece” if the information of Aero.Telegraph, a website specializing in aviation and tourism, is correct. Evaluating the summer flight schedule from Hamburg International Airport, the author points out that “airlines are expanding their supply, especially to Greece, in order to meet the increased demand.
This summer 47 flights a week are planned to Greece. “Eurowings, Condor and Aegean Airlines have increased their routes by 80% compared to the summer of 2020.”
Increased demand is recorded by traditional Greek destinations: Corfu, Kos, Rhodes, Santorini, Mykonos. In addition, the website notes, new destinations are added to the preferences of German visitors: “Kalamata in the Messinian Gulf, Chania on the northwest coast of Crete, and Preveza are three new airport-destinations of Condor that attract visitors for their sights and amenities, and their beaches. The offer is completed by Samos and Zakynthos “.
