Greetings,
I made it out to JFK to get some shots of the "Sky Greece" BHair (Balkan Holidays) A330 this afternoon.
Its not much to look at however I did not want to mess around with all the chaos going on in Greece right now. Something is better than nothing.
I wish they would have put the full BH Air Livery on the A330 though.

Nice catch! Here is my view from North Woodmere Park. I was surprised that there wasn't much heat haze!

Nice shot Mark,
I was a bit disappointed that high cloud deck moved in from out of nowhere. It kind of dulled the shots but I guess we still got it either way.

I guess because of the financial mess Greece is in they couldn't afford the Olympic Rings or a Greek flag.

Or even an aircraft that wasn't borrowed from Bulgaria!

Nice catch on that one guys! This a scheduled thing now or was it just a one-off?

I think it's once a week. Check out the SkyGreece website and search flights from ATH to JFK. Her scheduled arrival time is for around 1130.

Coming back today, so I took a look at their site; Tuesday/Friday, arrives 11am, departs just before midnight.

Is this service still operating? I was at JFK on Tuesday (which is a SkyGreece day), but didn't see any sign of the aircraft, and then today is another SkyGreece day, but there's no mention of it on the T4 arrival/departure page.

Sky Greece says JFK flights will end Sept1, but they never made it to August. Only operated 3 flights to JFK.

Gee .... Talk about short lived!Which one lasted longer, Scanderbeg or SkyGreece? Did Scanderbeg ever actually start service?

I am not totally sure. The Scanderbeg Aircraft lasted maybe 1 week maybe 1.5 weeks before North American took over for a few more flights. If I recall it came in maybe 2 times maybe 3 and then that was it.

According to the T4 website, SkyGreece arrived about an hour ago. There's a message on their website that they've delayed all flights by 24 hours, presumably to use their aircraft to run JFK for today only. Not sure if they were able to reclaim the BH 330 or if it's their lone branded 763.

It came in as the BH 330.
