I've just read, on an interesting blog by an Athens resident,that the metro link between the centre and the airport will be closed from February to October.
More details, and some options, here

If you're spending time in Athens can I recommend the temporary exhibition at the new Acropolis museum? It's small, free and, although (or because?) it's designed for children, gives a great insight into everyday life in ancient Athens.
The main museum itself isn't yet open - they are still transferring exhibits - but the temporary exhibition gives a sneak preview of what will be, I think, a spectacular building.
It is right next to the Acropolis metro and, when we went a couple of weeks ago, was only open 10 - 12.
Have a great time.

Thanks for the info on the metro link between the airport and centre. My wife and I will be in Greece in May and we were hoping to use the metro to get back to the airport. I guess that plan is up in smoke now. Thanks again for the info!
