TCX, AEU & XLA flights to Kalamata

Can anyone tell me what a/c the above airlines use on their flights to KLX? I have various family and friends travelling with each of them over the next few weeks.

AEU only have 73's and 1 75 (used for oil flights) so if its AEU it will be a 737, probably 700.

XLA will use their 737,m and TCX will either use their A320 or 757.

XLA can use both B737-800 (189 seats) and B757-200 (233 seats).
More likely to be a B757 tho........

When I used to do this route there was a problem getting a 757 in and out of KLX.

This may have changed since, but we only ever took A320's at that time, nothing bigger. I think there are still a couple of greek island airports like this.

KLX

AS AN EX-XLA EMPLOYEE WE OPERTATED BOTH B-738 & B-757 INTO KLX, I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT KLX WAS ON THE MAINLAND OF GREECE SERVING THE TOURIST ISLAND OF THASSOS, & NOT AWARE OF ANY RESTRICTIONS ON SIZES OF A/C, AS IT IS A HIGH SECURITY MILITARY AIRFIELD FOR THE GREEK AIRFORCE. AIR ATLANTA LAST YEAR OPERATED THE B-747 INTO THE ISLAND OF KOS, WHICH WAS RATHER SURPRISING, PROBABLY QUITE AN INTERESTING T/O & LANDING I SHOULD THINK WITH A FULL LOAD IN THAT HEAT!!
