Destinations / Europe

Gone are the days of waiting in long ferry lines and enduring bumpy waves from one Greek island to the next.

 

Greece’s first commercially scheduled helicopter service, hoper recently teamed up with booking platforms, hotels, destination management companies and travel agencies to provide seamless travel around the Greek islands. The company, based out of Athens, Santorini and Mykonos, currently serves 15 destinations across Greece, including Antiparos, Syros, Milos, Patmos and Anafi island.

Hoper joined forces with booking platforms like Ferryscanner, as well as Liknoss, one of the leading and fastest-growing Ferry Ticket Distribution Companies in Europe. Even luxury hotels and resorts like Kalesma Mykonos and Verina Sifnos work with hoper. The brand will also soon offer bookable tickets on Viator.

 

With a fleet of modern, glass-cockpit Robinson helicopters, hoper offers an efficient, quick and low-cost way to island hop in Greece. Tickets are offered per seat.

“I am immensely proud to support hoper’s groundbreaking approach to transforming travel in Greece,” said George Kyvernitis, CEO, Kyvernitis Group, a partner of hoper. “In a market where traditional destinations are often characterized by short distances and challenging accessibility, hoper’s innovative, scheduled-helicopter service is truly a game-changer. By harnessing cutting-edge technology and forging strategic partnerships across travel agencies, booking platforms, and destination management companies, hoper is not only simplifying the journey between our iconic islands but also elevating the overall travel experience.”
