Quick note
When the weather conditions for your flight appear in the five-day forecast, it's time to start packing.
This flight is the one I really hate. Eleven hours, Athens to New York, and that's assuming things go well. This is the same flight - possibly the same plane - where I once watched them dump something like a hundred tons of fuel into the Aegean so they could get back to Athens and land without collapsing the landing gear and pancaking the damn airplane.
