Ellinair is a Greek airline headquartered in Thessaloniki operating scheduled and charter flights.

History

The new airline was established on February 19, 2013 and its first flight was operated in February 2014.[4] The name Ellinair is a combination of the words “Έλλην” (Ellin - "Greek") and “air”. The company is a member of Mouzenidis Group, and it was originally created in order to serve the high volume of tourists, mainly from Russia, who visit Greece by Mouzenidis Travel. In October 2014, Ellinair flights were incorporated in all the Global Distribution Systems (GDSs), in order to ensure accessibility to all tourist agencies. On 15 June 2015, Ellinair launched new domestic routes from Athens and Thessaloniki.
