I was Island Hopping with Aegean Airlines and Olympic Air in Greece. I flew from Rhodes to Kastellorizo; which is known as one of the most difficult and challenging airports in Greece, due to the short 800-meter runway which often has strong winds and terrain and geographic restrictions nearby. The runway at Kastellorizo is sitting on a hilltop with cliffs on each side. Only the Dash8-100 and only the captain is allowed to land and take-off from there.
Next, I flew with Aegean Airlines on an Airbus A320 to Santorini; it was a beautiful flight over Aegean Sea, seeing many nice islands enroute. I was given a tour of Santorini and stayed in a spectacular cliff hanging hotel, which overlooks the Aegean Sea.
This is part 1 of 2 episodes of my Greece Island Hopping adventure by plane. Stay tuned for the next episode, a flight to Samos and a maintenance tour of inside a “naked” A320!

Yesterday a devastating 7.0 earthquake hit region around Aegean Sea (Samos, Greece and Izmir, Turkey) I am shocked as I was in Samos just 2 weeks ago. My heartiest prayers and best wishes for all the ones affected in this unfortunate disaster and hope for a quick recovery.
Honestly those flight attendants did a perfect job!
those masks are useless . why people still believe in that shit?
I like this guy. He doesn't talk too much. More video.
I am wondering 2 years why people, even in fresh air, using mind control useless face shit

Grecia meravigliosa – Marvellous Greece
So, I'm curious, what's the deal with Sam Chui–is he
a) Independently wealthy
b) does he makes a ton of money from his Youtube channel; or
c) gets comped tickets and accomodation by airlines for the publicity; or
d) a combination of the above?
Thanks
Wow what a mask ,still.
Wow Tnx bro good brother good business ok thanks good
NOTE: BEFORE TOUCHDOWN, THE AUTO SPEECH IS "RETARD, RETARD, RETARD"… NOT "RECHARGE, RECHARGE, RECHARGE"… IT MEANS TO BRING THRUST LEVERS TO IDLE POSITION, IN ORDER TO FLARE, TOUCH AND DEPLOY REVERSERS.
Aegean flight attendants after telling the passengers 10000 enjoy your stay after landing: 🥲👍
Anyone knows the music at 16:25 ?
WOW! I remember flying Olympic back in 2003 to get from Thessaloniki to Rhodes and it was either an ATR or Dash-8. Then from Rhodes to Athens we where on brand new Boeing 737 painted for the mascot for the Olympics coming up. Then we took swiss air from Athens To Zurich To Boston. But pre 9/11 we used to fly Olympics 747-200 direct from Boston To Athens, and sometimes the return had a stop at JFK before Boston as that was its rotation at its time. Olympic completely stopped flying to Boston after 9/11. I can tell you so many stories on those 747's back in the 90s. We took them every summer to Greece. We never got to fly the Airbus A340's OA got as my parents didn't want to fly to JFK first then to Athens so we used Swiss Air or whatever its name was then or now. But currently my parents usually just take Lufthansa out of Boston for any Greece trips.
Just seeing those old Olympic logos makes me cry. My whole childhood is filled of many many many memories and trips on OA aircraft.
Greece is my far my favourite country. It has my heart!
