Just read a thread on Airliners.net about Olympic Airlines. It’s to be replaced by a new unnamed company. The initial poster on Airliners thought the new company was going to be called “Athens” but this is in fact where the news item is reported from :D.

Just had a look on that airliners.net thread; as usual there’s some complete rubbish quoted on there. I’m sure the Olympic name would be maintained but just altered slightly; how about “Olympic Greece”. Changing the name to “Athens” would be like Air France becoming “Paris”.
Regards the post from a yank stating that KLM would obtain the 717s to replace the F100s; hardly likely when KLM are in the process of obtaining more F100s and still considering a 50 a/c order with Rekkof.
After the demise of Sabena, DAT became SN Brussels. Why not OA Athens?
