Are you travelling with checked luggage?
What passport(s) are you travelling with?
ME253 is infrequent, and often late (it was 40 minutes late yesterday) - how damaging would it be if you missed the check-in deadline of your Swiss flight? Can you afford to buy a new onward ticket on the next day?
No, travelling with hand luggage only. This will allow me to check-in for my SWISS flight directly online the day before, and go straight to the gate once landed in Athens from Beirut. Holding Italian passport. Am not sure on the average waiting time for passport control in Athens (on a Sunday late afternoon) as I normally transit via Istanbul. How do you see it?
