Brussel Airlines will operate two weekly flights to Thessaloniki, Greece’s second largest city, starting May 2016. On Thursdays and Sundays the airline will set sail for Makedonia Airport , near the tourist region of Chalkidiki with its golden sands and crystalline beaches.

The new Brussels Airlines service is aimed at drawing passengers from the important Greek diaspora in Belgium and southern Netherlands. Many Greeks living in Belgium have their roots in Northern Greece and return to their birthplace each summer.“We invest heavily in our Greece offer next summer  because we strongly believe in the growing tourism potential of the country for next year. With flights to Thessaloniki, Crete and Athens we fly to all the important regions of the country and we offer interesting travel options for those who travel to the mainland or the islands,” said Frédéric Dechamps, Vice President Sales Benelux Europe et Etats-Unis de Brussels Airlines

Brussels Airlines operates flights to Thessaloniki / Macedonia Airport (‘SKG’)  twice a week between May and October. On Thursdays and Sundays the flight leaves Brussels in the morning and returns in the early afternoon. The Thursday flight connects smoothly with Brussels Airlines flights from/to Germany, Scandinavia, France and the UK. CLICK HERE for more info
