Just curious which route across the mountains to expect. Anyone transferred to Plakias from Heraklion with Olympic?

Well I'm flying to Crete in 11 days. We'll see how that goes. I paid via Credit card so ATOL protected if the proverbial hits the fan.
Olympic were also quoted in The Guardian today:

Also this is worth a read. The Australian Strategic that went bust is not the Strategic flying to Greece.

Plakias / Boat trip prices

« on: May 18, 2012, 02:40:21 PM »

Can anyone say what the price of the boat trip to Prevelli and back is? Any clues to the timetable too? There also seems to be doubt if a bus service to Frangokastello, Chora Sfakion will run this year. I am in Plakias 29th May to 5th June. Any info much appreciated.

I went to Bali with Olympic (with Strategic) last year and had no problems whatsovever. Flew from Manchester in late September. Coming to Plakias this year on 29th May with Olympic and hoping for a similar experience this year!
