     We are planning to go to Greece in August and are a little concerned
about security at the airport too. 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!
