Will these be free flights instead of just miles (I am assuming they will not), because taxes and fees also have to be taken into consideration. Surely better to say that they will double the miles and pay the fees, instead of tripling miles but not waiving the fees. These seats are probably going to go empty, will the medics just be helping to pay fuel costs?
Another thing, I think that from this initiative Aegean's future has been secured. It would be very controversial indeed to let an airline go bankrupt that had issued thousands of tickets to medical workers who have bravely saved so many lives. The government would surely have to step in. Aegean probably didn't consider this...
