Taken March 2003 from Athens ATH to London Heathrow

One should keep in mind that because Olympic was for many years in a really bad financial situation, everyone expected the airline to shut down. This has resulted in a bad staff behavior, since they were for a long period in a state of losing their jobs at any time. However, the management is in a process of re-opening Olympic under a new similar brand name of "Olympic Airlines".

They say that they will give special importance in all marketing related services, which will be of benefit to the future passengers.

The flight I was on was OK, although there is ground for improvement. The seats were comfortable, but the interior of the aircraft needs some care. The flight attendants were polite and helpful, although this is a matter of luck when you fly with Olympic.

The food was fine compared to other airlines and they still serve hot meals.

In general terms I will fly again and I hope for improvement in the new "Olympic Airlines"
