The Boeing 707-320 Intercontinental is a stretched version of the turbojet-powered original model. The interior allowed for up to 189 passengers, while a longer wing carried more fuel, increasing range by 1,600 miles (2,600 km) and allowing the aircraft to operate as true transoceanic aircraft.
Olympic Airlines is the flag carrier airline of Greece, based in Athens. In 1965, Olympic placed its first orders for the Boeing 707-320 jet aircraft. The first was delivered in 1966, bearing the name "City of Athens".
