Always avoid flying to or from Greece on a Wednesday. It's their most favourite strike day........

We're due to fly back to uk on Wed. Does anyone know if Athens Airport is affected? There's nothing on the Easyjet web site.

I found this which says only regional airports are affected?

The latest I have heard (here in Greece) is that international flights will be ok.
and should not be affected. still worth keeping an eye on things though, perhaps check with your operator.
