Filepse Tous

Aegean - A gift from Greece

Athens, 9 September 2016. -   AEGEAN, a Star Alliance member, is offering travellers a real treat via its unique gifting scheme, Filepse Tous (Fee-le-pse toos), which sees Greek nationals choose gifts for foreign passengers travelling home on the airline.

Hospitality and the joy of gift-giving, particularly to visitors, has been a part of Greek culture since ancient times, and Aegean Airlines is continuing that tradition today with its own passengers. 

Filepse Tous, which means “treat them" in Greek, allows people living in Greece and Cyprus to offer a gift to foreigner passengers traveling back home on one of AEGEAN’s flights, as an expression of gratitude for their visit. All treats come from local producers that we proudly support and promote them internationally.

Last year almost 32,000 took part in the scheme, and following on from that success Aegean Airlines made the decision to run it for a second year in Greece, and also launch it in Cyprus.

Unsuspecting travellers may therefore find a lovely surprise tailored gift on their seat, including beautiful products from Greece and Cyprus, along with a personalised ‘thank you’ note.

And of course, passengers who wish to thank the senders of their gift will be able to do so via social media, using the hashtag #aGiftFromGreece.
