  Recently, China Eastern Airlines announced plans to launch a direct flight route from Shanghai, China to Athens, Greece in June 2020. This will be the first direct flight connecting Shanghai and Athens.


  Currently, among the direct flights from China to Greece, Air China operates three flights per week (Monday, Wednesday, Saturday) from Beijing to Athens, which is expected to increase to four flights per week in 2020. However, to fly from Shanghai to Greece, passengers must transit through cities such as Moscow, Frankfurt, Istanbul, Dubai, or Doha. Therefore, this route by China Eastern Airlines will be the first direct flight from Shanghai to Greece. It is reported that the flight will be operated by China Eastern Airlines' flagship Boeing 787 Dreamliner, with three flights per week.


  Athens is located in the central plain of Attica, surrounded by mountains on three sides and bordered by the sea on one side, characterized by a typical subtropical Mediterranean climate. As the capital of Greece, Athens has a population of nearly 750,000 and covers a total area of 412 square kilometers, making it the eighth largest city in Europe and one of the commercial centers of the European Union. This city, exuding classical beauty, is known as the cradle of Western civilization, attracting numerous tourists. The launch of the direct flight route from Shanghai to Athens represents a new aerial bridge between China and Greece.


  It is understood that in addition to China Eastern Airlines, Hainan Airlines has also obtained operating permission from the Civil Aviation Administration of China for a direct flight route from Chengdu to Athens, and the inaugural flight is expected to be announced soon.


  As trade, economic, and cultural exchanges between China and Greece become increasingly close, more and more Chinese investors are considering Greece as a destination for immigration and investment. With the increase in direct flights between the two countries, it will become more convenient in the future for those wishing to travel to Greece for tourism or investment immigration!


  Currently, through the Greek property investment immigration program, investing in real estate starting from €250,000 not only allows the entire family to apply for a Greek permanent residence visa, enabling travel across 26 Schengen countries, but also provides access to Greek education, healthcare, and other social welfare benefits. Additionally, investors can acquire property with permanent ownership in Greece, establishing a second home abroad, achieving multiple benefits at once.


  WorldWay Immigration Group, as one of the early immigration agencies promoting the Greek property investment program in China, collaborates with strong Greek developers to introduce another significant real estate project to investors—Athens Seaside Promenade Apartments & Shops, catering to your diverse needs.


  Project Overview


  Type: Apartments & Shops

  Unit Type: 1 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom

  Price: Starting from €250,000

  Project Highlights: Located in a potential area of the Athens Seaside Promenade, excellent geographical location; convenient transportation, easily accessible to all areas of Athens; complete surrounding facilities, enjoying a quality lifestyle; stunning views of the Acropolis and the beautiful seaside; compliant with the Greek property investment law, allowing home purchases for the entire family to apply for Greek permanent residence visas.


  This project not only features exquisite design but also uses high-quality materials for construction. A total of 12 one-bedroom apartments and 4 shops have been released. Each apartment is modernly decorated and comes with a large balcony, allowing natural light to fill every corner of the room. From the moment residents enter the apartment, they can enjoy a pleasant, stylish, and comfortable living environment.

  The project is located in the uniquely advantageous northern part of the seaside promenade of Alimos, close to the sea, and adjacent to Vouliagmenis Avenue, one of the most important roads in Athens, connecting the city center with the southern seaside promenade of Athens. Thanks to this avenue, the project site can quickly reach the airport and the city center of Athens. At the same time, the project is near the Piraeus area, which has attracted significant investments from well-known shipping groups due to its excellent infrastructure and good building quality. The southern CBD of Athens is transforming into a globally recognized shipping business center, and there is strong rental demand from local professionals and families in this area.

Here, residents can enjoy a variety of leisure and entertainment activities, with vast green gardens, the newly built National Library, opera house, and the stunning Aegean Sea all within close proximity.
