Hi folks,does anyone have any information about the proposed strike which is due to take place over Sunday and Monday? We're flying out on Monday and praying it won't disrupt our travel plans.

It now seems that it will affect mainly domestic flights so hopefully we will be ok.

As far as I can see, it is internal and not international. I found this official statement:
Air traffic controllers have NOT announced a strike, which means international flights arriving/departing via Athens and Thessaloniki would go ahead, though there may be delays. — Strikes of this kind are sometimes called off at the last minute. — Airlines and booking agents will have no information for you, if you call now. Cancellations are announced less than 24 hours notice, in case the strike is called off. It makes no sense to reschedule/cancel everything and then reinstate.
There is no mention of charter flights to other Greek destinations.
