Helios Airways
Helios Airways was a low-cost Cypriot airline operating scheduled and charter flights between Cyprus and many European and African destinations. It had its corporate headquarters on the grounds of Larnaca International Airport in Larnaca. Its main base was Larnaca International Airport. Flights ceased on 7 November 2006 because the company's aircraft were detained and its bank accounts frozen by the government of Cyprus due to its reputation deteriorating after the Helios Airways Flight 522 disaster.
