Aarhus to Karpathos direct flight development

Overview

Plans have been established to launch direct flights between Aarhus, Denmark, and the Greek island of Karpathos starting in the summer of 2027.

Initial announcements indicated that the route would be part of the Travelheart Family programme, following multi-year coordination between the Karpathos municipality, the EOT Scandinavia office, and various travel fairs. The initiative aims to target the Scandinavian market through local partner Karpathos Travel.

Aarhus Charter has since confirmed the expansion, scheduling the first flights to commence on May 17, 2027. The airline cited Karpathos’s “unique character and scenery” and its status as a smaller, more authentic destination as primary motivations for the new route.
