Aegean Airline, the largest Greek airline announced its plans to launch summer service to Birmingham. The airline said it intends to commence service between Birmingham and Athens in June next year. The airline was established in the year 1987 and since then has been operating service to various destinations from its hub in Athens International Airport and other cities across the country.

As per the plan, the airline will commence twice a week operations between the city pair. The flights will run every Tuesday and Saturday. The airline will use the services of Airbus A320 aircraft on this route. This plane is equipped with a seating capacity for 168 passengers. The seats have been configured in two classes, Business Class and Economy Class.

The seasonal service will function from June 10, 2014 through October 25, 2014. Earlier this year, the airline launched a similar service between London Stansted and Athens. The flights on this route commenced on July 11 and were terminated on September 25. Europe is one of the favorite holiday destinations amongst travelers. Many travelers explore the richness of Europe in different cities. With the onset of the season, passenger traffic and demands begin to mount. Many airlines therefore, either launch additional service or boost the frequency on popular routes.

However, business passengers and passengers who are Gold card members can access the airline’s lounge at the airport. In fact, Gold card members can also carry an extra baggage with them to their destination.
