Hellenic Seaplanes plans to connect 100 Greek destinations over the next few years
New services will make island-hopping trips to far-flung destinations much easier
The Greek aviation company says it wants eventually connect more than 100 locations throughout Greece, with the first routes due to be operational in during 2025. With a vision of creating a new, affordable seaplane network will make it a viable and much faster alternative to the ferry. Hellenic Seaplanes headquartered in Athens, was established in May 2013.
Because its fleet, currently comprised of a 12-seater Dornier Seastar and a 19-seat Twin Otter amphibious aircraft can land on water, the service will be able to serve smaller islands currently unconnected by air, without the need for costly infrastructure. That shouldn’t stop anyone from planning their ultimate island-hopping adventure from Hellenic Seaplanes’ list of planned destinations, connecting far-flung destinations from the northern Aegean to the Libyan Sea on a trip that would need a month to explore by boat.
