Came back with my husband from the Christmas holidays in Athens. They flew to Athens by Aeroflot on 01/02/18. Everything was organized, understandable, on time. Aegean Airlines flew back. The flight was advertised as NO BAGGAGE. We obediently bought small suitcases for hand luggage in advance, almost did not load them with things so that there was a small weight. In general, in our understanding, we prepared for departure and flew to Athens immediately WITHOUT BAGGAGE. The hotel guide helped us check in before our flight. We forgot about it. We found places nearby through the aisle - NOT critical! Calm and relaxed arrived at the airport. At first, the customs officials did not like the contents of our suitcase, the lock was recoded from nerves, and we could not open it. After 5 passages through the tape, we were released, having seen souvenirs, clay fridge magnets. Further more. The flight was announced in advance by the Greeks as a flight without luggage, and people obediently took hand luggage. And as it turned out, there is NO WHERE TO PUT it in such an amount! And at the exit, airport workers began to randomly poke at the first suitcases they came across in order to send them to luggage. Let me remind you that the suitcases were not ready for the luggage compartment: they were not wrapped, without covers, with clay and glass souvenirs inside. But no one listened. Using the scientific poke method, some suitcases (absolutely suitable for the company's requirements for hand luggage and size and weight) were sent to baggage, others huge and heavy in hand luggage. At the entrance to the plane, baggage workers picked up the suitcases of ZEUS' CHOSEN. Tried not to give up, didn't work. In such a strange state, with the phrase about the mother on our lips, we met with very beautiful stewardess girls - Greek women. I wanted to go home quickly. In general, I no longer wanted these people in my life. The flight was delayed for 20 minutes. It seems NOT CRITICAL!!! I will say this about the work of the team: 1. The pilots are at the level, there are no questions. 2. Flight attendants all 3 hours (let me remind you that the flight was at night), without letting go, watered, fed, cleaned, heated food, occupying the passage in which people lined up in parallel in a huge queue for the toilet. Mixing the smells of perfume and some kind of food, running around and bad organization in the night, I still associate with the Greek company Aegean Airlines. Stupid unnecessary fuss, taking away the strength of both the stewards and passengers, aimed not at a good organization, but at ANYWHERE. An airplane is not a flying restaurant! The main thing here is not to feed. The main thing is comfort, peace and security. We did scratch our suitcases. True, nothing was broken. But I don't want to go to Greece anymore! ALL!!!
