43 years later, OA's ATH-JFK was axed just today, (Sep 29th 2009) because of the shutdown of Olympic Airlines and it's re-launch as Olympic Air :((((

Miss you old OA. Thanks for everything!

Amazing picture from an amazing era; a sleek, 6-month old 707 and an airline that was then among the fastest-growing in the world. Too bad Olympic is about to shut down now.

A very rare photo of SX-DBB,the second 707 of OA,sold later to ALIA-ROYAL JORDANIAN.OLYMPIC started serving the ATH-NYC route in 1966 and that was quite a move for a small size airline.

A visitor from Canada posted Sat August 11, 2007:
The classic 707 still has such beautiful lines, and this photo brings home the era of grace in flying...
