Olympic Airways Heathrow

Posted on March 1, 2010.
Olympic Airways HeathrowWhat is the best - BA or the Olympics?

Hello there. Does anyone know what is best to get to Athens from Heathrow: British Airways or Olympic Games? Olympic hear the improvement, but the service is still a little soft, but I had a bad experience with BA from Gatwick earlier this year (payment period, very little information) and I am reluctant to fly them again

I think you answered your question.
But personally, I would fly BA, everyone in life has bad experiences with airlines and all airlines are falling behind in their lives, but the majority of BA's delays are caused by late passengers at the door or simply the airfield is too crowded for the amount of aircraft at the airport, at certain times of the day, which is not the fault of BA. Regarding some info, I work for BA we can only advise people if the information is transmitted to us in doors. And when we receive information that we are ready to start boarding.We all work very hard to do the right things when it comes to punctuality, but like everything else in both the airline and passengers airport authorities to work together to do well, then we would have aircraft leaving OnTime.
But at the end of the day its personal preference and everyone has a choice. But in terms of reliability, security and service i would fly BA, and it's not because I work for them either. Hope this helps

I can understand the frustration within 4 hours, but how long does it take to service and word a car ?????
I prefer to take their engineers time to evaluate the problem on the ground to the door like most tech defects are repaired at the door, and sometimes they cannot because they require more specialized equipment to solve. As for another airliner loans do not know what time it takes to prepare a plane this is not just a case of the plane is placed at the passenger door and u take off. If the plane had come from the basic engineering, it should be verified by the chief engineer and flight certificate will be issued after that depending on where the base is there any need to obtain a permit circulation of air to pass through the base means to perform live to get to the door designated, must be cleaned and taken the crew to check the aircraft and pilots need to check too much for nothing, then take the luggage to baggage and cargo aircraft on the new old plane, but that jargon be until the restoration of vehicles coming off. Then, once everything is complete, we can begin boarding the new plane.
Hope this helps.

I read an article on Olympic and it looks like they had some problems, but none of them are security issues. BA is the healthier of the two.

QUOTE, the company was facing serious financial difficulties since the 80s, mainly because of management problems. Greek politicians and their families traveled free air transportation for symbolic amounts. Greek government has also arranged for the Olympic News with a reduction of 97%. Olympic Airtours (Ολυμeιακή Τουριστική) was established as a subsidiary of osteoarthritis, which issues tickets not only for osteoarthritis, but other airlines as well. Soon, Olympic Airlines has been renamed and restored Macedonian AirTours as a charter airline.

In the mid-1980s a nonstop route to Tokyo was launched but soon closed because of the interest of passengers and heavy losses limited. Olympic Boeing 737-400 aircraft purchased in 1993, and the advanced version of the A300, the A300-600R. Because of rising losses and debts, the government decided to formulate a restructuring program in which all debts were cleared. This program and all the plans that followed, failed. A few years later, in an attempt to OA profitable, its management has been given to the subsidiary of British Airways, Speedwing. The result was even more debts and losses increase. In 1999, Olympic has bought four Airbus A340-313X aircra.
