Looking forward meeting you guys
Just booked my flight.
I will arrive Saturday 12:45 noon in Athens (LH 1278) ex. FRA and going back on Sunday 6:05 pm (LH 1283).
What is the hotel where most of the others will stay?
Hilton charges 160 €
The Parthenon 79 €
Actually, I would like to stay with the growed.
Update: I now did book the Parthenon. You can cancel it until two days before. Therefore, if something comes my way, I might switch.

I've updated the attendees list, adding hotels where known.
Also note a change for Sat. a.m. at lili's suggestion: We're heading up the Acropolis first thing in the morning. We can have lunch as we go down the north side of the Acropolis into the Plaka area.

As Aegean Air is now part of Star Alliance, I sent them the following e-mail five days ago:
A few minutes ago, I received this reply:
Okay, I can understand and accept screwed-up English when it is written by a CSR for a foreign airline, but shouldn't they be able to do better in a form letter?
Hi,
I have a reservation with you for December with the booking reference of ________. I am a Continental One Pass Platinum member, with the account number ________. This gives me Star Alliance Gold membership. I would appreciate it if you could change my reservation so that the credits I will earn for this itinerary will go to my One Pass account.
Also, could you please tell me if my Star Alliance Gold membership will give me entry to lounges in Tel Aviv and Athens when flying Aegean Air?
Thank you,
Dovster

Can't you push this back until just after Christmas just for me? 
I'll be in London and Rome before and during Christmas and don't get to Athens until Dec. 26th.
Unfortunately, I can't make this one. But hope everyone enjoys the Do and maybe I can make a future one sometime.
