Zela Aviation, a leading aviation brokerage firm based in Greece, Cyprus and the UK, is proud to announce a deal between EasyJet and the municipality of Sitia, marking a significant milestone in the ongoing efforts to boost traffic and tourism in the Sitia region of Crete.

In October 2022, Zela Aviation began its consultancy of Sitia Airport (LGST) with the ambitious goal of expanding its network and increasing overall airport traffic. Zela Aviation is proud to unveil the successful culmination of these efforts, as EasyJet is set to commence operations at Sitia Airport for the Summer 2024 season, paving the way for Sitia as an alternative gateway to Crete in 2024.

Starting from June and continuing through the end of August, EasyJet will operate three flights per week, two from Naples and one from Milan to Sitia Airport. This new route adds more travel options for passengers and catalyzes economic growth and tourism in the area. Zela Aviation’s commitment to enhancing connectivity and promoting regional tourism has played a pivotal role in attracting EasyJet to Sitia Airport.

Leveraging its extensive industry expertise and relationships with airlines all around the globe, Zela Aviation successfully brokered this strategic partnership, marking a significant achievement in the company’s mission to elevate Sitia Airport’s status and awareness in Greece. In the last two years, Zela Aviation has seen more demand for its consultation services from airports, particularly in Greece where there is potential growth for tourism traffic. Greece continues to be a leader in the tourism sector every year and is growing stronger.
