ATHENS (Reuters) - Greece's largest carrier Aegean Airlines on Friday reported a lower loss in the second quarter compared to the same period a year earlier as passenger traffic recovered from the pandemic travel restrictions.

Aegean said its net loss came to 33.9 million euros ($39.91 million) in April-to-June compared to a loss of 73.4 million euros in the second quarter of 2020. Sales rose 168% to 108.6 million euros.
