Sky Express

Sky Express (IATA GQ) is a Greek carrier based at Heraklion International Airport on Crete, with a major operating base at Athens and strong activity at Thessaloniki. It built its network island-hopping across the Aegean and linking the Greek mainland, and has since added international routes to destinations across Europe, the Balkans, and the Middle East. Its fleet mixes turboprops with Airbus A320neo-family jets; regional flying has long relied on ATR 42 and ATR 72 aircraft, earlier alongside BAe Systems Jetstream 41 turboprops. Sky Express belongs to no global alliance, operating instead through codeshare and interline partnerships.
