The only double-award-winning Greek airline in Europe for its excellence and innovation, offering passengers even more options with new connections, more routes, and quality services, while contributing to healthy competition, creating more competitive fares, and enhancing the economic and tourism development of societies and places.

At the same time, SKY express, responding to the needs of its passengers, strengthened its fare types (SKY joy, SKY joy+, SKY enjoy) with the addition of BLISS, the company's Business Class. "BLISS" redefines the passenger's travel experience by offering: priority and comfort at every stage of the journey, access to VIP lounges (SKYexpress is the only Greek airline that offers VIP lounges in three destinations: Heraklion, Athens and Thessaloniki throughout the year), extra luggage and high nutritional value meals. In addition, the company's Business Class has been designed with the environment and practices in mind for a sustainable future.

SKY express flies throughout the year to the largest domestic network of destinations, at 33 airports, while during the summer season international destinations are further strengthened, reaching 15 in Europe. It is noted that in 2023, SKY express transported approximately 4.3 million passengers.

With the motto "Greece is bliss", the state-of-the-art aircraft take the Greek airline all over the world!
