Returned yesterday from a week in Kos with friends. Flew out on 29th with Tor Air OAI233. Check in was fine, only queued for 5 mins if that and then security control was no hassle at all, quite a few lanes open and people flowing through fine. Our flight was due to leave at 7:35am and we were called to Gate 300 (a/c parked stand 84) thinking we were about to board to then get told due to ATC strikes in Greece we would receive an update at 1045. So, we went upstairs and bought a pitcher and as we started going through that at about 930, we were suddenly told to head to the gate for boarding! So there was 4 of us trying to finish a pitcher at a fast rate as we had only just started and in the end we got to the gate for the first final boarding call. Flight left eventually about 1030 or so after there was a bit more of a delay on the ground.
Came back last night on OAI234 and arrived 10 minutes early of our planned 1730 even though I am certain we performed one holding pattern at DAYNE. Parked on stand 213 and headed through the e-passport gates with no queue. Baggage didn't come through till about 18:05 but then straight out and headed home.
Now time for a week long detox and refusing to look at alcohol the same again (at least for now).
