The tour operator offers direct flights to both Crete and Preveza in Greece, where the latter has already sold an impressive 70 percent more compared to the same time last year.<\/p>\n<p>This year, the route was fully booked long before the school holidays started. For next summer, Apollo has therefore added an extra departure, meaning the season will start as early as May 4th.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Apollo&#039;s destinations Preveza and Crete are very popular among our travelers and it is therefore particularly pleasing to receive the news that bookings for trips from Skellefte\u00e5 Airport are at a record high and that an extra departure is being introduced.<br \/>\nWe have a very good collaboration with Apollo where both parties work for more departures and destinations for travel-loving Northerners, says Robert Lindberg, CEO of Skellefte\u00e5 Airport.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Parga \u2013 most popular<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One of the biggest advantages of the Greek mainland is the sheer number of choices. Apollo offers a whopping 12 different resorts across the popular region \u2013 from romantic Parga and lively Sivota to pristine Paleros and fabulous Zagoria.<\/p>\n<p>From Skellefte\u00e5, it is Parga that clearly stands out as the absolute most popular destination. This year, the holiday resort was followed by Sivota \u2013 but for 2026, genuine Lefkas looks set to take second place.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>This is exactly what makes the Greek mainland so amazing: you can travel here ten years in a row and still discover new places every time! It is very fun to see how travelers from Skellefte\u00e5 explore new destinations, and Lefkada is an absolutely wonderful destination \u2013 especially for those who appreciate the genuine Greece, says Martina Krantz, press officer at Apollo.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And it seems that the genuineness is what attracts. Even at the hotel level, a clear trend is visible among travelers from Skellefte\u00e5 ahead of next summer: small, Greek-owned hotels directly on the beach are the most in demand.<\/p>\n<p>All trips are bookable.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h1>For more information:<\/h1>\n<p>Robert Lindberg Martina Krantz<br \/>\nCEO Press Officer<br \/>\nSkellefte\u00e5 Airport Apollo<br \/>\n+46 70\u00a0551 70 75\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 +46 8 6 739 100<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:robert.lindberg@sft.se\">robert.lindberg@sft.se<\/a> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <a href=\"mailto:martina.krantz@apollo.se\">martina.krantz@apollo.se<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0Researrang\u00f6ren Apollo rapporterar en f\u00f6rs\u00e4ljnings\u00f6kning p\u00e5 hela 70 procent till det grekiska fastlandet.
