Mount Zeus

At 1003m (reports vary from 1001 to 1004) Mount Zeus is the highest point on Naxos.

Fantastic panoramic views greet you from the top so it is a worthwhile climb.

There are 2 different starting points.

The first is the route marked on the road that takes you past Zeus cave. It is more difficult that the second route. I managed to get lost twice on this route.

The second route is easier, and better marked. It starts from Agia Maria chapel on the road to Danakas. (About 3 km further from the turn off for Zeus Cave and the first route).

Air Canada and Westjet.

Just back from a holiday to Canada. Few Air Canada from London to Toronto.

I'm afraid I have to say I found them to be one of the worst long haul carriers I have ever flown with.

• Old plane (Boeing 767)
  
• Poor food
  
• Little legroom
  
• No individual video screens.
  
• Very few video screens per section means you can have a bad view of screen (as we did).
  
• On both outward and return journey the headphone socket did not work correctly (had to hold it constantly to get it to work)
  
• very poor film selection (including original 1978 superman, and 1989 Batman).
  

As part of the same holiday we also flew WestJet internally from Toronto to Charlottetown PEI. The difference was huge.

• Modern planes.
  
• Individual video screens.
  
• Satelite tv channels available to your individual video screen
  
• Westjet staff were exceptional.

The flight from toronto to Charlottetown was the most enjoyable fight I was ever on. The lead flilght attendent (I belive her name was Cara) has a future career as a stand up comedian. Who would have thought a sercurity briefing could be so funny. I have never seen passengers pay so much attention to it before. (I must also stress that it was still completely professional and covered all the aspects required).

So its WestJet 1 Air Canada 0. I know who I'll be flying with in future.
