      Managing Director

      The Company Wayfare Aviation Sevices ( W.A.S) was established in October 1997 in order to welcome the GSA of SAS in Greece.Representative of SAS in Greece with full responsibility for passengers sales. My core market was the seamean traffic due to the excellent pricing policy and the routes offered by SAS. Furthermore, I keep the contacts within the Scandinavian communities.When SAS reached an code-share agreement with Maersk on the Athens- Copenhagen route, the sales were blossomed. I manage to sale 65% of the seat capacity, although Maersk had its own GSA.Meanwhile, Spanair added into my representation list. I manage to achieve high scores on the routes Athens- Havana, Rio Janeiro and Sao Paulo. I was a pionnier to introduce f Havana as a tourist desination in the Greek Market. The sales were flourished, till the time decided to cease the opetaion in Havana.Finally, SAS decided to resume the opeartion in Athens, again. I consider one of my achievements in my carrier.
