Get your Aegean Airlines flight compensation for the route Athens - Paros
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Athens and Paros with Aegean Airlines? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 145 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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport (ATH)
- Arrival airport: Paros Airport (PAS)
- Flight distance: 145 km (~0h11)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.
How to know if the flight Aegean Airlines Athens - Paros is eligible?
The compensation for flight ATH-PAS is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.
The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Aegean Airlines sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport, the 250 € compensation is automatic.
What are the conditions for Aegean Airlines to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Paros.
-
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...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Athens, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Aegean Airlines compensation
Don't be fooled by Aegean Airlines's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.
A strike by weather services at Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Aegean Airlines has no control.
What are your rights at Athens airport in case of prolonged wait?
In addition to financial compensation, the European regulation guarantees what is called a 'right to care.' If your flight is delayed departing from Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport, Aegean Airlines must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.
If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Aegean Airlines?
Getting justice against carrier Aegean Airlines requires perseverance. No response or standardized refusals are common tactics.
To maximize your chances of success, use a collection service. These experts know the case law perfectly and will not be intimidated by the legal department of Aegean Airlines.
How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
Patience is often the watchword. Airlines receive thousands of requests weekly and processing your file for the flight from Athens to Paros Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.
A collective action on the Aegean Airlines flight from Athens can also be a way to get your funds faster.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
Hitting a wall or getting a 'standard' negative response is unfortunately the lot of many passengers who claim only for the prejudice suffered on the Athens - Paros line.
Experts in aviation law have a colossal history of Aegean Airlines convictions, which is a decisive advantage.
