I agree with the last response however, that the State Dept. does have an axe to grind with the Greek government. The head of the International Air Transport Association (who is having an emergency meeting in Montreal to try to cope with the rash of terrorist activities of late) said that he thinks at the moment, Athens is one of the most secure airports in the world. They have apparently tightened up security since the hijacking. Anyway we thought of changing our travel plans but have decided to go ahead with them. We are flying in on TWA but out on Olympic. We feel that the Olympic terminal may be safer as it is not the international terminal. Here's hoping for the best! Anna P.
