Hellenic Airways

Does Hellenic Imperial Airways still exist? If so, do they still operate B-747-200 aircraft? Calling them is of no help, as no one answers. Not looking for a job.

Hi MES Drvr,
Hellenic Imperial is a Greek(Hellenic) company so the Middle East subforum isn't the appropriate place to ask for infos. Members with information for the company would probably don't check out the middle eastern subforum.
The company had 747-200 as you mentioned. A plan to replace them with A340 terminated even though an aircraft was painted in Hellenic colors, probably due to lack of funds. As for the current situation if the company still exists yes it is Jumbo operator. By the way the building in Athens that houses the company's office still has Hellenic Imperial signs. I can't tell you if the sign is leftover or not.

Thanks. I was looking for the appropriate place to post the question and I was just being lazy.

There had been a play to take some A340s from Gulf Air.
If I recall there is a couple parked on the north ramp in Bahrain in the Hellenic Livery
