Thanks for finding my video and pressing play!
Aegean Airlines have a strong reputation for high quality. European business class isn’t known for its hard product, so it’s on the soft product that airlines compete in business class.
This was a splendid experience and it’s easy to see why Aegean are highly thought of. Every aspect of the flight was delivered well. Boarding was slick and unfussy, staff were enforcing priority boarding, cabin crew were immaculately turned out, there were pre departure drinks (in Europe...yes!), the meal was first rate and not only good but actually interesting to eat...need I go on?
Watch the video to enjoy the experience with me. Next up, I check out their Economy product from Athens up to Belgrade in Serbia.

I love Aegean. I wish they did long haul. I have flown them on domestic flights within Greece and i have never seen any airline to try and serve you drinks and a snack during a 45 minute flight. If they get turbulance and they are unable to achieve this they apologise for not offering their full standard of hospitality. Also the flight crew are impecable, friendly, efficient and eager to help. Well done Aegean.

Olympic was one of the first airlines in the world to operate a jet aircraft, the infamous DeHavilland Comet 4B. The first Comet 4B flew on 27 June 1959 and BEA began Tel Aviv to London-Heathrow services on 1 April 1960. Olympic airways was the only other customer to order the aircraft.

@davidhawkins683 4 года назад

I use Aegean regularly from Berlin to Athens and I have to say business class on that route is even better ! Smaller number in business class and even more attentive service. I qualify for a Silver card and that gives my four lounge passes for Athens and two free upgrades to business class. The Aegean Lounge at Athens Airport (Schengen only) is pretty good. Aegean's attention to detail is superb. Even in Economy there is a full range of special meals and I always choose the seafood option which seems to get me a slightly better meal in economy (and I like fish). My choice of meal is remembered so it is automatically chosen each time I book. Wine in economy is also very good. Because of the pandemic, Aegean extended the validity of my frequent flyer card by six months, very generous I thought. When we are all flying again Paul, maybe you could film my regular trip ? Berlin to Athens with Aegean. Transfer to Piraeus and then 19.00 ferry departure to Syros (Mon, Wed, Fri). I know you like your food Paul and this boat has a full service restaurant with truly excellent food and wine at very reasonable prices. Syros is the hidden gem of the Aegean. Medieval City and Cathedral, neo gothic 19th century architecture and beautiful 19th century opera house modelled on La Scala, Milan.

@Paul_Lucas 6 лет назад

Aha, thanks Andy - and great to hear you used to work for Olympic. I never flew with them but found their livery distinctive and fun when I used to watch planes as a kid in the 90s from the old T2 roof terrace (RIP). Actually this year I will be holidaying in the UK, a week by the sea. 🙂

@constantinosbikos7125 6 лет назад

Paul's Trip Reports I have flown a lot with Olympic. Greeks still very sentimental with their old national air carrier, almost part of the national identity. The Olympic logo had been voted as the best commercial airline logo in the world as it was so distinctive that you couldn’t confuse it with any other carrier. Hope Aegean manages to revive the airline as part of their group but I don’t see that happening any time soon. Hopefully one day. Cheers for the video. I loved it.

And excellent and good value pre-order meals too.

They were among the first orderers of the most magnificent airplane ever btw. Which of course is the Concorde. I still believe that the original Olympic livery with the blue band over the windows and the 6(!) rings is the best look for a commercial airplane. Would have loved to see a Concorde in that livery.

@andebest 4 года назад

Happy to see that others have had nice experiences with aegean. Unfortunately I’ve only flown with them twice of which the second time was the worst flight experience I’ve ever had. It mainly comes down to an incident where my girlfriends seat was occupied when we boarded the airplane. An older woman was sitting in her seat and the woman didn’t speak english so communicating with her was difficult. After about a minute or so one of the crew members seemed to notice and started walking down the aisle. When she came to my girlfriend standing in the aisle trying to communicate with the older lady the crew member just walked straight past to the back of the airplane. She did something back there and shortly walked back to the front passing my girlfriend once again without doing anything to resolve the seating issue. Almost everyone else was already seated at this point when another passenger a few rows back stood up, walked to my girlfriend and managed to communicate with the lady and resolve the issue. Apparently the lady seemed to have mixed up an 8 and a B on her ticket. I just can’t get over the complete lack of attempting to help from the staff. Hopefully it was just a one off incident.

That’s very cheap to get to TLV, how are you flying back? Spoiler alert, their economy was pretty good as well on the ATH/BEG sector. I like that little landing area at T2 as you can see right over to T4 which IMO is the most interesting in terms of exotic airlines.

Paul's Trip Reports The price I paid was for a return.. .. that's how good it was.

Holy hell that’s cheap. Always wanted to visit TLV.

Exactly why I jumped on it, yeah it has a connection, but I could have gone with Easyjet for about 250 return non-stop, or paid a little more for Swiss around 270, and BA were high but dropped the fare to under 390. But then that came up and I jumped on it.

Aegean Airlines Business Class does look good. I have got a Star Alliance account. In the future I would like to fly Business Class with Aegean Airlines and collect loads of frequent flyer miles for my Star Alliance account.

In Canada the Air Canada Lounges don't serve alcohol before 1100 local time.

Thanks Paul great report. Nice to see the city I call my second home. Brugge (Flemish spelling). VLM are commencing a MAN-OST service from 1st October, so I will be visiting far more often than the 6-8 times a year that I presently do. I certainly remember the old Olympic Airways. Vague recollections of travelling to Athens on a DH Comet and around Greece on Short Skyvan's and NAMC YS-11'S

Wonder if the that model of the Canada 787 will fit in a carry-on? Very nice report as always. The Aegean aircraft looks very similar to the United livery minus the globe... Nice plane spotting on the taxi out.
