ATHENS. 33 new routes beginning in May 2021 - Corfu, Mykonos, Santorini, Heraklion and Thessaloniki - to kick off the new tourist season.

The direct connections to European cities is expected to give a boost to Corfu International Airport, offering more choices to travellers and elevating the island as a destination and a hub.

According to the airline network website www.anna.aero, Corfu and Heraklion will get seven new routes apiece, Mykonos and Santorini eight each and Thessaloniki three. It is expected that competition will increase due to this move by Aegean.
