Istanbul to Athens

What is the best way to travel from Istanbul to Athens March 30, 2013? I have checked Olympic air. Would anyone recommend another airline or another method of travel?

Flying is absolutely the best way. Turkish Air and Aegean Air also fly that route. I've flown both of these, plus Olympic, and never had a problem beyond weather delays. I'd just go with the best price.

We flew Olympic Air last May from Istanbul to Athens. Would not hesitate to recommend it. The food they served on this short flight was better than what Delta serves. The flight attendants were great-all young, attractive, wearing chic uniforms-not that this is important but the flight was pleasant and the choice was not peanuts or pretzels. We chose Olympic over Aegean because of better timing options. Price was about the same.
