Greek carrier Aegean has ordered a further two ATR 72-600 turboprops, as its Olympic Air subsidiary introduces its latest of the type.
Olympic Air has 15 ATRs, a mix of a dozen 72-600s and three of the smaller 42-600.
Aegean deputy chief Michalis Kouveliotis says the new aircraft reflect an “ongoing commitment” to Olympic’s modernisation.
The additional two ATR 72-600s are scheduled to arrive in December next year.
Olympic uses the type on domestic routes as well as international services to regional destinations.
“We remain confident that ATR’s latest-generation aircraft will enable us to further enhance connectivity across Greece,” says Kouveliotis.
ATR chief Nathalie Tarnaud Laude says the turboprop is “ideally suited” to Aegean’s network.
