London Heathrow - Larnaca. I found Aegean's price reasonable and A320 was very comfortable.
The crew were happy to help and free meals were included which was nice. Great that Heathrow
Terminal 4 is used too. Cannot fault.

ATH-LHR economy. Very comfortable seats, excellent meal, clean and new aircraft and in-flight
entertainment. Frequent flyer department are sometimes a bit difficult to deal with, and I
would have liked more in-flight information from the flight deck. Definitely value for money
for a direct flight.

ATH-LHR A321 new and clean . Sat in row 4A, perhaps too far front as the you cant see the TV
screen at all due to the fact it is placed on the Business Class Divider (first 3 rows are
business class). Flight well priced and I like the fact that their tickets are changable by
paying a small fee. The food was fine, but portions were too small. Asked for a second meal,
which was provided after 5 minutes. The luggage collection landing in Heathrow was too slow and
took forever. Despite these small issues Aegean Airlines is an airline that I enjoy flying with
and the best choice by far out of Athens.

MXP-ATH in Economy class. Excellent onboard service and some of the best airline meals. The
flight attendants were nice and professionally handled a medical emergency right after
landing.

Have made several flights with Aegean Airlines in the past year. It was very good value for
money. Flights mostly on time, inflight service exceptional and friendly FA's. Helpful ground
staff. Overall, this will be my preferred carrier to Greece.

This airline was very helpful during a very difficult time. They did not deliberately increase
their prices during the mad panic caused by the bad weather in Europe in the days before
Christmas. My original booking to travel London to Athens was with KLM and then I was passed
to Air France. Neither of them could organize things properly and after endless problems it
took them 4 days to get me only as far as Paris with no hope of leaving for at least a day.
Aegean came to my rescue and even though they also took off late they made sure I did not miss
my next flight with them to a Greek island. During this 4 day nightmare I had to rebook my
domestic flight several times with Aegean and they were very accommodating.

IST-ATH-SKG Business. Very good airline, clean planes both on time, friendly cabin crew.
Got a hot meal on the IST-ATH flight but didnīt have time to finish it due to short length of
flight, stewardess very apologetic. Will definitely fly them again.

LHR-ATH-HER return. The seats were more comfy and planes were clean and tidy. The staff were
nice and friendly. The food was extremely nice although you do not get a choice. All this was complimentary.

LHR-ATH return. Crew very friendly and efficient. Food fine - greek oriented cuisine, with
complementary drinks. Seats comfortable, reasonable legroom. As we had young children, check
in staff put priority labels on our bags for us. My only minor complaints would be at
Heathrow, they have just 3 or so desks, and only open these a couple of hours or so before
departure, so you have to queue up to check the bags in - web check in is not that
straightforward - I was unable to check us all in together, but had to do it as 4 separate
check ins. Also, unable to purchase a ticket online for my son as he was 1yr old at time of
booking but 2yrs old when flying, and their website could not handle that. Otherwise, a very
pleasant start and finish to our holiday.

Athens to Santorini. Aegean have a modern fleet of mostly A320s. The flight was short but
efficient. Seats comfortable. Business lounge in Athens is small but has a great variety of
food.

MUC-ATH. The seating was standard European Business with the middle seat blocked. The
highlight of the flight was the meal, which was a pasta dish with shrimp, calamari and tomato
sauce - simply excellent. Friendly crew and good service as well as the meal.

ATH to FRA. Nice, clean A320, polite and smiling crew. Service consisted of nice hot dish
(unusual these days for short haul) and dessert, Just one round of drinks (wine and beers
available free of charge), but those who asked were served a second one with a smile. Crew
perhaps a bit too tolerant with passengers who did not respect the seat belt sign during taxiing. .

LHR-ATH-LHR. Booked at the last minute because of the BA strike. BMI lounge excellent at T1,
Swissport lounge at Athens almost as good. Modern, clean A321-200, seats 2A/C outbound & 1D/F
inbound. FAs excellent. Food service rather rushed outbound with no pre-lunch drinks and no
offer of champagne pre take-off. Food average quality but good to have the Greek accent. Food
service and quality similar inbound and still no sign of champagne. IFE unusually provided on
a 4 hr flight but consisted of just a single film on overhead drop-down LCD screens. Priority
baggage return worked remarkably well both outbound and inbound, and the general efficiency of
the new Athens airport was a delight. Overall, a good product.

Customer support uninterested and never answer emails (despite the fact that I am a Gold card
holder). Only contracted lounge in ATH if you are flying extra-Schengen. Unacceptable for the
largest carrier in Greece since two of the most popular destinations are extra-Schengen:
London and Larnaca. Some of the flight attendants have the nasty habit of ignoring passengers
and thereby forgetting to bring drinks or meals to some. Hidden charges - this is not a no-
frills airline, yet you get charged for booking your flight online (10 EUR), there is no way
around this fee, as if you buy it over the phone you pay as well, if you buy at their ticket
desk as well.

I have travelled many times with Aegean Airlines, from Berlin to Athens, Athens to Larnaca but
also in domestic flights in Greece. In general I would say that it is a very good company, as
long as everything goes well and you DONT need anything from the customer support. In that
case you have to wait for hours (sometimes days) for someone to pick up the phone, quite often
to tell you that she/he is not competent to respond to your question and as such your call
will be forwarded. Surprisingly 9 out of 10 times nobody will pick up the forwarded call.
Another malicious trick they are doing is saying that you should wait for the responsible
person to call you. Something that may happen after a week or so, if you get lucky. They also
have the bad habit of not informing the passengers for delays or other unexpected event that
may jeopardise the trip. I missed a flight once (one of the very few that departed that day)
because the advice of the Athens airport information desk (Aegean did not pick up the phone or
the line was busy from 9 in the morning till midnight) to to my question if the flight will be
delayed-cancelled or not, was to go at the airport four o'clock in the morning and hope that
the flight will take place, otherwise ask the Aegean people there. I didn't risk it. As a
result I was waiting 4 months to get the taxes from the ticket back. There are also hidden
charges, as using the internet to book tickets involves a fee, the same applies though if you
book the tickets by phone.

I recently flew from Athens to Milan. One extra bag cost 325 Euro. I could have purchased
two tickets providing for two adults with bags for each less expensive. The counter agents
were disinterested and responded to each other in Greek which I do not understand. This
practice is unreasonable and unacceptable.

ATH-IST, on a new A320 (there is a possibility of e-check-in or mobile phone check-in).
personally I am not using those services. I prefer the traditional check-in line which was
convenient and not crowded. The service was nice, the crew was friendly but when I asked for a
newspaper the flight attendant took a note of my seat; but she never brought me the newspaper,
(may be they run out of newspapers because they had lot of people in business class). In the
returned flight the flight attendant noticed my seat and then she brought the newspaper to me.
There was no IFF but on overhead screen you could see the map of the flight and flight
information. Food was nice with selection of wine or beer. Both flights on time and about
60% full. On the return flight they had time for duty free trolley.

Self Check-in is easy for use, but unfortunately not cover most abroad airport (e.g., CDG,
France). Manual Check-in is a little slow. Meal is very good even for economy class. The staff
attitude and friendliness is impressive. And the flight is very comfortable.
