Mid-autumn meteorological patterns solidify across Hellenic FIRs from 8 to 14 November 2026. Eastward-shifting high-pressure ridges allow weak fronts and localized troughs to cross the region, bringing cooler temperatures, variable cloud cover, and increasing wind shear along island channels. Operational updates cover key gateways: single-runway maintenance at Athens (LGAV), morning sea fog at Thessaloniki (SKG), crosswinds at Heraklion (LGIR), and clear IFR corridors at Rhod

A late-autumn low-pressure system moving across the Aegean basin and Ionian sectors brings heightened humidity, lowering cloud ceilings, and scattered rain bands to Greek FIRs early in the week. Operational conditions transition from temporary VFR disruptions to clearing, partly sunny skies heading into Thursday and Friday. Read the complete flight dispatch briefing and runway operational impact analysis for Athens (LGAV), Thessaloniki (LGTS), Heraklion (LGIR), and Rhodes (LG

As September draws to a close, stable high-pressure patterns continue to dominate Greek FIRs, ensuring pristine VFR conditions across major hubs. While Athens (LGAV) and Rhodes (LGRP) maintain comfortable late-summer warmth with favorable density altitudes, northern and island sectors like Thessaloniki (LGTS) and Heraklion (LGIR) experience refreshing seasonal cooling and steadily easing Meltemi breezes, delivering optimal operational stability for all domestic and long-haul

High-pressure stability continues across Aegean and mainland FIRs for the week of 30 August – 5 September 2026, sustaining pristine VFR conditions and easing Meltemi winds. Athens (LGAV) and Rhodes (LGRP) peak at 31°C–35°C with high density altitudes requiring load checks. Thessaloniki (LGTS) cools slightly to 28°C–32°C with stable ILS approaches. Heraklion (LGIR) maintains 29°C–32°C highs, regulated by steady 15–18 knot maritime breezes.
