His good performances earned him a transfer and a three-year contract to Greek Superleague club Panionios.[3] Loukinas made his first team debut in a home defeat against Larissa.[4] He played in one more match before he was loaned out to Kalloni and PAO Rouf.[5]

In the 2011–12 season he was indispensable for Niki Volou appearing in all but 4 matches and scoring 3 goals in the club's quest to promotion.[2][6]

He played for Fokikos in the 2012–13 season appearing in no less than 24 occasions and scored 3 goals before, in May, inguinal hernia let him out for the rest of the season.[2][7]

On 3 August 2013 Loukinas signed for Chania.[8] He debuted for his new club in the opening match of the season a 2–1 defeat from Iraklis Psachna.[9] His first goal for Chania was an injury time winner against Acharnaikos on 24 November 2013.[10] Throughout the season he played in 34 matches for Chania and scored 9 goals.[2]

On 9 September 2015, the 24-year-old forward agreed to three-years' extension with increased earnings. Loukinas will sign his new contract with the club on 12 September.[14] On 2 October 2017 Loukinas signed for Football League club Kairaskakis.[15] On 16 May 2018 he returned to Superleague for the new season, as he signed a two years' contract with PAS Giannina for an undisclosed fee.[16] On 1 November 2018, he scored four goals in a hammering 5-0 Greek Cup home game against Thyella Kamari.

On 5 February 2019, after being released from PAS Giannina, Loukinas signed a contract with Platanias, until the summer of 2021.[17] Twelve days later, he scored his first goal for the club in a 2-0 home win against Karaiskakis.[18] On 10 March 2019, he scored a late first-half winner in a 1-0 home win against Ergotelis.[19] On 27 March 2018, the Greek striker scored his first career hat-trick, in an astounding 7-0 home win against Sparti.[20] Three days later, he added another 2 in his tally in a 4-0 away win against Irodotos.[21] On 13 April 2019, he scored in an emphatic 5-0 away win against Aiginiakos[22] and four days later he added another one in his tally, in a 4-3 home win against Panachaiki.[23]
