Taken April 2001 from Athens to Sydney

A generation behind the competition. Even though they boast personal TVs in all classes, there was a choice of only 3 films.. for a 22 hour flight!

Cabin crew rude, disinterested, shabby and abrupt on all sectors.

Food the poorest I have seen, economy meals (and sub standard at that) set on linen.

Very poor drink service (no diet drinks), no duty free offered, no magazines on board, choice of two dishes at meal time - if you are lucky.

New Athens airport a joke, Aristotle Onassis Lounge (biz class) poorest I have ever seen.

Overall, an airline that is crumbling despite new A340s. In fact, Olympic ranks behind many old Eastern European carriers I have flown such as Aeroflot. Not a national carrier but a national disgrace.

No wonder BA did not exercise its option to buy into it!!!
