I continue this off-topic discussion (Mods, feel free to move it somewhere else). Olympus Airline's home page is under construction since last summer. The names of the Board, though, are known and the capital of the company is presently 24 K€ (!). They started about one year ago with a leased 20 years old 737-500 that they "gave back", and they just received the leased A319 (15 years old). Their first plane had been obtained from , and was returned to Hermes, a subsidiary of Air Méditerranée, which according to many is supposedly in some financial difficulties.

I picked all of that doing a a few Google searches for not more than 5 min. Everything sounds strange and I would dare say that this reminds me of about 10 Greek airlines whose names I remember as companies that went broke... (I flew with two of them, one of them by... mistake).

A day later: now I do remember better, I flew with six of them...
