I totally agree on your
Dash 8 comment . . .
Why did Olympic Air get rid of the Dash 8?
@@nickbiskinis4854 Worse operating costs & maintenance requirements are given as reasons in related forums. All turboprop operations in Greece are now dominated by the ATR42/72. Two Dash 8-100 are still operational for STOL fields and as backup.
I wonder what Aegean will do with Olympic Air fleet wise longer term - whether it will order the A220 for some regional routes (Heraklion-Larnaca/Tel Aviv/Cairo)
I ❤ this beautiful island it has stolen my hart😂😂
They let you get onboard with coffee? WTF!
Why not? Many people take drinks with them on board.
The germans who own Athens airport have got it running with like a Swiss watch.If the airport was run by us greeks, it would've looked run down, delays after delays and strikes.Greece is a beautiful country and my countrymen are selling it off to the highest bidder piece by piece.
Unfortunately I disagree about the airport working fine, specially summer 2023 and April and May 2024 many issues and delays came up. Also I think the majority of the shares belong to a Canadian pension fund. I agree with you that privatization helped for example Thessaloniki airport. But not because of strikes but different management and know how.
You were doing alright until you made the comment about us Greeks selling off our country bit by bit. That’s a misleading oversimplification but lets not start a stupid dialogue over this, in this medium.
@@mmscuf If it was Twitter it would be better? I am against privatization personally but unfortunately the Greek bureaucracy and management wasn't enough for the airports. Selling our 14 airports is a huge scandal, specially with everything followed from FRAPORT.
@@AirFlightTravels Funny, my only regret in the government’s sub-contracting the management to Fraport of said 14 airports is that the number was not higher and left out islands like Chios which is struggling to modernize during the last 4 years and neither an end is in sight nor a vision of what will be handed to the traveling public at the end, in a distant future. You be against privatization. I am delighted, to see the momentum that it has finally acquired in our country (better late than ever!) and look forward to see privatization expand to all other sectors where the state has no business other than to perhaps retain a minority stake for the sake of partaking in profits in business entities where it was previously the sole owner and was absorbing year-after-year huge losses which at the end of the day were passed on to the Greek taxpayer. You want state enterprise? Go to Venezuela or Cuba.
