Simple answer: Leave runway approach and runway lighting on during hours of operation, therefore no chance of misidentification.
Leave these damn light ons,dont cut cost!!but greece...not really the time for extra costs i guess.
I feel for the crew and im sure they will for ever remember this mistake and this will never catch them again...
Briefing about PApis relative to runway is a goodnadd on to a brief... LIGHT system in VFR, yes VFR DAY LIGHT,we need lights with the sun in the face!
Yes it is a runway used as a taxiway..glad outcome was ok.
