Greek charter and leisure flights across Europe.

Headquarters

Athens, Greece

Viking Hellas was a Greek charter airline that operated primarily leisure and package holiday flights, serving tourists traveling to and from Greece and various European destinations. The carrier was part of the broader Greek aviation market that catered heavily to seasonal tourism demand during the late 20th and early 21st centuries. The airline operated under the IATA code VQ and ICAO code VKH, with the radio callsign DELPHI. Like many charter carriers of its era, Viking Hellas focused on connecting sun-seeking European travelers with Greek island and mainland destinations during peak tourist seasons. Viking Hellas ceased operations, as did many smaller Greek charter airlines, amid increased competition, rising fuel costs, and shifts in the European aviation market toward low-cost carriers. The airline is no longer active.
