Here's the link for the Greek newspaper, which will keep you up to date on all the Olympics news straight from the Greek sources:

795 Flights into Athens Yesterday

Noting air security somewhat under pressure with that amount of flights over what was projected - see snip below:

The Athens international airport is also in a state of readiness in terms of security and measures to handle vastly increased air traffic, including more than 500 flights daily for 48 hours before the Olympic opening ceremony and the day of the closing event at the end of August.

Thank you for that link. It looks like those Turkish fighter jets like to stray a bit into restricted air space.
