General strike of Greece: Flights are cancelled-Three thousand passengers will not travel

The airlines operating at the airports of Cyprus proceeded to cancel the flights to and from Greece that would take place tomorrow (16/03).

Speaking to Mesimeri and Kati, the Press Representative of Hermes Airport Pieris Panagi said that due to the general strike in Greece, the schedules of the airlines that had scheduled flights to Greece are affected.

"Approximately 3 thousand passengers will not travel to Greece tomorrow, but they have been informed about the rescheduling of their flight either by the airline or by their tourist agent," said Mr. Panagi.
