We flew with Astraeus in May 2004 by Boeing 737 to Lesvos - we had booked with Direct Greece and since they don't have their own airline holidaymakers get added onto someone else's flights , but this did not prove a problem. Astraeus otherwise known as Aeolus (or Aiolos, Αἴολος) in Greek Mythology was the Keeper of the Winds, and this is obviously where they took their name. I am pleased to say they were on time , both in and out. The aircraft was spotless and the aircrew efficient. We had pre-booked vegetarian meals and had emailed the airline a week beforehand to check these were available , and on both flights our meals arrived with no problems. As an additional piece of interest Bruce Dickinson lead singer of Samson and Iron Maiden is a First Officer of this airline ... I was rather disappointed that he wasn't at the controls of our flight!
Can't find much detail on how to book with them or even where they fly to - are they just a charter airline used by holiday tour operators, maybe? - Trevor
