Air Arabia can already book direct flights from Sharjah to Athens and
return online, via the Air Arabia app, over the phone, or through travel agents.
Many Middle Eastern airlines service Athens from the UAE and neighbouring
Gulf countries; however, Air Arabia will be the second low-cost airline from the
region to operate from Athens, joining Wizz Air Abu Dhabi, which operates
twice a week from the city.
Cirium data indicates that Air Arabia served this route between April 16, 2009,
and October 30, 2010, and no airline has taken over to fly between the two
cities since Air Arabia ceased operating it.
Passengers will embark on Air Arabia’s Airbus A320 for nonstop flights from
Sharjah to Athens and return, enjoying the comfort and in-flight
entertainment. The single-isle aircraft has one of the most spacious seat
pitches of any budget cabin and comes equipped with “SkyTime,” a
complimentary in-flight streaming service that lets users download a variety
of entertainment straight to their devices. Additionally, passengers can enjoy
a range of delicious refreshments at reasonable costs from the “SkyCafe”
menu available on board, including hot meals, snacks, and sandwiches.
