Hellenic Seaplanes Opens New Greece-Albania Air Corridor

Thursday, 18 June 2026/SourceGoogle News/1 min read
Hellenic Seaplanes has launched the first cross-border seaplane network connecting Greece and Albania, marking a significant expansion of regional air travel in the eastern Mediterranean. The service creates a new travel corridor between the two countries, offering an alternative to traditional ferry and road routes. For tourists visiting Crete, this development signals growing investment in seaplane infrastructure across Greece, a network that could eventually extend to Cretan coastal destinations. Seaplanes offer direct water-to-water connections, bypassing conventional airports and potentially opening access to smaller coastal towns and islands. Travelers planning trips that combine Crete with other Greek destinations or the Albanian Riviera may benefit from future route expansions as the network grows.
