SkyGreece announces it will ‘temporarily cease’ operations
SkyGreece Airlines, which operates flights between North America and Europe, has announced it must temporarily cease operating.
The airline issued a statement on its website, saying: "SkyGreece Airlines would like to apologize to all of its passengers who have been affected as a result of the Company’s current operational crisis.
"The founders, managers and employees of SkyGreece care deeply about their passengers and have been working around the clock to resolve the problem.
"Shortly after launching scheduled international service in May, SkyGreece suffered financial setbacks as a result of the Greek economic crisis.
"In spite of the resulting immediate and dramatic reduction in ticket sales, the Company’s founders have worked tirelessly to maintain scheduled service. Unfortunately, as a result of recent technical issues, the Company is now facing a system-wide multi-day delay and significant additional expenses.
"As a result, SkyGreece management regrets to announce that it must temporarily cease all operations. The Company expects to resume operations soon.
"Passengers should contact their travel agent to arrange for alternate travel and/or accommodations."
