“We have been waiting a long time for this flight, and there is a lot that the peoples of Croatia and Greece can learn from one another, considering that both countries are recognised historical and culinary tourist destinations,” said the Ambassador of the Hellenic Republic Stavros Tsiepas.
The Aegean Airlines summer flight schedule for 2018 includes a network of 153 destinations in 44 countries, with a fleet of 61 aircraft.
