In my experience and looking at the route you're trying it simply means there's no availability. If you try the JL-OneWorld method it will show you instead the actual number of seats available which will be 0 if there's none. You have to have a JL account to do this but it's free to set up.

Here's the result for ATH-LHR on 27th March with the JL method:

[KVS Availability Tool 7.3.2/Diamond - Awards/JL-OneWorld/UK]
Code:
ATH  Athens Eleftherios Venizelos GR [LGAV]
LHR  London Heathrow UK [EGLL]
THU  27 Mar 2014

Carrier    Flight  From  Depart    To    Arrive    A/C  St  Availability
---------  ------  ----  --------  ----  --------  ---  --  ------------
BA         631     ATH   09:10     LHR   11:15     767  0   CS0  YS0
BA         633     ATH   19:00     LHR   20:50     767  0   CS0  YS0
I find this more useful than the BA method.
