The two largest airlines in Greece have both posted strong results for the start of 2025. Additionally, both carriers are looking forward to a strong summer season ahead, with higher numbers of visitors expected to travel to Greece for their vacations and with both airlines continuing to expand operations.<\/p>\n

According to Tornos News, Athens-based Aegean Airlines<\/a>, which has become the country\u2019s de facto national carrier, carried 3.1 million passengers in the first quarter of the year (January to March 2025), a figure that represents an impressive 8.4% increase over the same period in 2024. In the first quarter (1Q25), the carrier increased total capacity by 8.8%, reaching 3.86 million seats in total across its network. The airline\u2019s load factor remained high, at 80.2%, and while slightly down on the same period in 2024 (by 0.3%), it still managed to keep above 80% for what is essentially the off-peak season for Aegean.<\/p>\n

As a key indicator of how the airline is doing on its international route network, the carrier saw an 11.7% increase in international passenger traffic in 1Q25, reaching 1.9 million passengers, up from 1.7 million in the corresponding period of 2024.<\/p>\n
