Low-cost carrier Air Arabia is taking off for Athens with the launch of four weekly flights, as the Sharjah-based
airline pushes ahead with its European expansion.

The direct flights will connect Sharjah International Airport with the Greece capital, with operations commencing
from June 28.

Flight G9 684 will depart from Sharjah at 9am, landing at Athens International Airport at 1.05pm. The G9 685
flight will then depart from Athens aboard an A320 aircraft and arrive in Sharjah at 7.50pm.

The airline said in a statement that it aims to “facilitate increased accessibility for both business and leisure
travellers.”

Air Arabia, which operates from multiple hubs across the UAE (Sharjah, Abu Dhabi, Ras Al-Khaimah), along with
several international ones, also announced last week that its Air Arabia Maroc hub will launch four new routes
from a new base in Tetouan, starting on March 31. These new connections will fly to Barcelona, Malaga,
Brussels, and Madrid.
