Pandair, Meander, I often hear such Handling Agents for Greece.
A friend of mine who flies business jet uses Pandair on regular basis (mainly at Corfu) and he’s quite happy with their service. I don’t have any reason not to trust him However, you’re proven source of reliable information as well and I’ll quote aopa.gr page when I ask quotation next time.
There’s a good chance my wife and I will join. We drop of my son at Rotterdam Sept 3 (starting university in Holland) and we will have until Sept 10 free for holidays. I believe we’d just leave the plane on Crete through October (good excuse to return for long weekends!).
Will Syros have AVGAS by then?
I was at Syros this weekend. The guy at the Air BP office said that they will start selling fuel tomorrow 3/7/2017.

I will probably join by boat, as I will be in the islands around there at the time =)

Not counting those arriving by boat or airline
I have emailed the airport, regarding 5-10 aircraft.
I have created a Telegram group for this fly-in. Joining link is here.
This is the apron. For scale, the runway is 30m wide.
I think that @chrisparker was also interested – see #06
Just got this
Like with Carcassonne in 2016, we seem to have an airport which doesn’t want planes flying there. I wonder if a local can check it out… The above is from the CAA, not the handler.
It will probably work because say we get 10 planes going down there. At least a few will cancel (e.g. with Copenhagen about 50% cancelled) and if say we get 7 arriving at Samos, if just two of them have only 1 person inside, that person can fly with someone else and leave their plane at Samos. For example I am likely to have 2 spare seats. Also if there are any high-wing planes, one can park a lot tighter on the day.
I believe these islands are obliged by the CAA to always keep spare parking available for the combination of
