Flight compensation Aegean Airlines:
Athens — Mykonos

Get your Aegean Airlines flight compensation for the route Athens - Mykonos

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Aegean Airlines did not respect its scheduled times for your Athens - Mykonos flight, the law is on your side.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 136 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Aegean Airlines to pay you financial compensation.

Why are you entitled to 250 €?

The European Regulation EC 261/2004 is very strict regarding air passenger rights. The amount of fixed compensation does not depend on the price of your ticket, but only on the flight distance.

This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.

How to know if the flight Aegean Airlines Athens - Mykonos is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Mikonos Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Aegean Airlines owes you 250 €.

Keeping your travel documents for the Aegean Airlines ATH-JMK flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Athens.

What are the conditions for Aegean Airlines to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Mykonos.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Athens airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Aegean Airlines (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Aegean Airlines compensation

If your Aegean Airlines flight from Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport was cancelled due to an internal union strike, you are eligible for legal repair.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 250 € will not be due.

Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by Aegean Airlines.
