New genuine Greek destination with Apollo from Skellefteå Airport

Charter operator Apollo has over the years expanded both departures anddestinations from Skellefteå and for the summer season 2025 they continuethat investment by offering the Greek island of Karpathos as
charter destination. Skellefteå Airport becomes one of few regional airports in
Sweden that can offer trips to Karpathos and thus also unique in northern Sweden. In 2023, the charter company Apollo started charter trips to the Greek mainland Epirus directly from Skellefteå Airport. The outcome was a complete success and now Apollo has decided to continue with charter trips to Epirus but also expand the range of destinations with the new destination Karpathos. Skellefteå Airport will be one of the few regional airports in Sweden to offer charter flights to Karpathos, located between Crete and Rhodes. – We are so happy that Apollo continues to develop the charter offer from Skellefteå. The Greek mainland Epirus with Lefkas, Parga and Sivota are very popular destinations and to be able to offer a new unique destination to northern travelers is very gratifying. Karpathos offers beautiful nature, good food and magical beaches, so we are happy to be able to offer this great destination from Skellefteå, says Skellefteå Airport CEO Robert Lindberg. – Apollo chooses to continue investing in a growing Skellefteå. As the population grows, so does the need for vacation travel, which is why we are pleased to offer Karpathos from yet another regional airport. Karpathos broadens our range and will certainly be a very popular destination from northern Sweden, says Martina Krantz, press officer at Apollo Karpathos has a beautiful hilly landscape with high mountains and valleys and here are several fantastic lookout points. Karpathos has a genuine Greek atmosphere, the food is good, the beaches are wonderful, and the sea is a lovely blue and crystal clear.

To all destinations, Apollo will also offer its senior concept Apollo Silver, which is aimed to travelers +55 years, which means adapted travel with high freedom of choice and quality.
