I was traveling to Greece a few years ago and this happened on the flight:
Flight Attendant: what do you want to drink?
Me: Fanta, please.
FA: I don’t have, but I can make it for you!
Me: 🤔
FA: I have Sprite, I have orange juice. Then I combine them: FANTA!
Me: 😅🤦♂️
FA: I’m serious, I made one for someone last flight…
Greek people, especially in hospitality, never say no. Even when they should say it. While this can be frustrating if you’re not used to it, it also means they go out of their way (most of the times) to make whatever they agreed upon happen.
And, yes, sometimes they flake on you. But you get used to it, as well. It’s the cost of doing business.
