Hi all,
Just thought I'd post here as I had a bit of a 'shock' (not much really) that Olympic/Enter Air have gone and changed the times of the early flight from Manchester Airport.
When we booked it (and we actually paid £100 extra which I'm not very happy about now) the morning flights were 07:32 -> 13:45. It appears they have now changed them (without actually sending an email out!) to 08:15 -> 14:25.
It still lands in time for the generally accepted 15:30 time but it now obviously has less wiggle room for delays and what not (especially with Enter Air's apparent reputation online for delays!).
In fairness I did ring Olympic to confirm and the lady there was lovely and couldn't have been more helpful so nothing to complain about other than spending £100 extra and thinking I should have booked Nissia and Monarch!
Anyway, thought this information may be of interest to others.
"C'est la vie", "what will be will be" and all that. I'm just hoping they don't push it back further!!!

Unfortunately this does happen, it happened to us a few year ago with Thomas Cook and the change meant we didn't arrive in Rhodes until the evening so an overnight stop was necessary, all at our own cost as we go independently. My guess is that the airlines are finalising their flight times as the season is approaching. You will be fine with the new time as long as you don't get a major delay....will keep everything crossed for you  |

I don't actually mind having to stay over night but I'll be miffed if the flights get put further back meaning my paying £100 extra was just wasted money. |

Your post made me look at our flight times and it has changed to 15 mins earlier which is good but we are heading to Tilos for our first week so we have a night in Rhodes anyway before catching the catamaran in the morning. I imagine a few of the airlines will be altering times in the next few weeks, hopefully now yours has been changed it will stay at that time.
