Olympus Airways was[2] a Greek charter airline offering ACMI-leasing, charter and ad-hoc flights headquartered in Agia Paraskevi.

History

[edit]

Olympus Airways secured its Air Operators Certificate (AOC) from the Hellenic Civil Aviation Authority (HCAA) in 2015. The company commenced operations with a single Boeing 737-500 in October 2015 offering charter flights between Greece and Germany.[3] Olympus Airways had since grown its fleet to consist of two Airbus A321-200 passenger aircraft and two Boeing 757-200PCF freight aircraft. Olympus Airways leased their aircraft to other airlines on an ACMI basis. They have operated for the TUI Group and Congo Airways amongst others.[citation needed] The airline was declared bankrupt in 2024.[2]
