Aegean Airlines (ICAO: AEE) is the flag carrier of Greece and the largest Greek airline, known for its extensive network and commitment to service.
Aegean Airlines traces its origins back to Aegean Aviation, founded in 1987. After its acquisition by the Vassilakis Group in 1994, it was rebranded as Aegean Airlines and commenced commercial flights in May 1999, initially operating routes from Athens to Heraklion and Thessaloniki. The airline expanded through strategic acquisitions, notably incorporating Air Greece in December 1999 and later acquiring Olympic Air in 2013, though both brands continue to operate separately.
The airline's main operational bases and hubs are Athens International Airport (ATH), Macedonia International Airport (SKG) in Thessaloniki, and Larnaca International Airport (LCA) in Cyprus. Its head office is located in Kifisia, Greece. Aegean Airlines operates a modern fleet primarily composed of Airbus A320 family aircraft, including A319s, A320s, A320neos, A321s, and A321neos. Its subsidiary, Olympic Air, also operates turboprop aircraft like the Dash 8-100, Dash 8-Q400, ATR 42-600, and ATR 72-600 for regional routes. The airline offers scheduled and charter services, focusing on an extensive route network that connects major Greek, European, and Middle Eastern destinations. As of November 2025, it serves over 150 destinations (including 31 domestic and more than 120 international) across 47 countries.
Aegean Airlines has been a proud member of the Star Alliance, the world's largest airline alliance, since June 2010. For its passengers, Aegean offers Economy Class (with GoLight and Flex fare options) and Business Class. Business Class provides enhanced comfort and privileges, such as priority check-in, fast-track security, lounge access, increased baggage allowance, complimentary welcome drinks, gourmet Greek meals curated by executive chefs, and greater ticket flexibility. The airline also features its Miles+Bonus frequent-flyer program, allowing members to earn and redeem miles across the Star Alliance network. Wi-Fi services are also available onboard for connectivity.
