Recently flew from London Heathrow to Athens on Olympic Airlines. This was the first time I've travelled using this airline, and was pleasantly surprised.
The flight was on time, so no problems there. The staff were friendly and polite, and seemed to be looking after their passengers with ease.
The aircraft itself was very nice! The seats surprisingly made you feel like you were travelling premium economy, or even business class... lots of leg room!
The food was pretty good, nothing special, but then it is airline food. As it was a short haul, in-flight entertainment didn't exist. Still, there seemed to be an unlimited supply of drinks so everyone was happy.
The return trip was just as good as the outgoing flight. I have no problems flying with Olympic Airways again.
