All Four Olympic Flights to LCA Tomorrow Cancelled
All four flights from Greece to Larnaca tomorrow are showing as cancelled on the Hermes Airport website. This is unprecedented. Does anyone know why? In fact, I have just seen that all Aegean and Olympic flights from Athens appear to be cancelled. Flights by other airlines like KLM and LH are shown as operating.

Again? Didn't they strike just a week ago?
I just googled it and indeed all but 2 flights (929, 931) on Thursday are canceled!!
Flights on Friday the 16th with departures prior to 8 a. m. are also affected, which might be why I can no longer find tickets/flights to change my A fare with the "same day free change" option...
Info!

Would this upcoming strike also lead to cancellations of all flights?

It seems that the Sunday and Monday strike is by a different union (https://enhmaek.gr) from that striking on Thursday (http://www.eeeke.gr).
Would this upcoming strike also lead to cancellations of all flights?

I just came of a flight from the islands and my onward flight has been retimed to late in the evening. Given I have quite a bit of work to do I'm spending most of the time in the ATH lounges. You can clearly see the impact of the strike as the lounges were packed to the (COVID19 acceptable/enforced) brim before 12.30pm and are now almost completely empty!
