Commercial flights

Since the early days of aviation, there has always been a sense of prestige associated with staying in the air for longer periods, traveling farther, and offering passengers more comfort to help them pass the time.

A remembrance service was held Wednesday to mark 14 years since an airplane operated by Cypriot airline Helios Airways crashed in the Grammatiko region of Attica, killing the 115 passengers and six crew on board.
The ceremony was attended by politicians, local officials, Cypriot Ambassador to Athens Kyriakos Kenevezos and relatives of the victims.
