Minister Kikilias stated that 2022 would be a record year with direct flights between Greece and the US reaching up to nine per day and offering more than 460,000 seats.
Ambassador Pyatt highlighted that there will be 14 different services between Greek and US airports emphasising the importance of Greece as a market as it is in great demand by US tourists.
