Can I offer some alternative explanation? How about Germany has a population of >83 million vs ~10 million for Greece. If one adds the non-German regions within two hours (surface travel) from FRA and MUC one comes up to more than 100 million potential customers as opposed to still ~10 million within easy access to ATH.
