Flight compensation Aegean Airlines:
Bucharest — Athens

Procedure: Aegean Airlines flight compensation from Bucharest to Athens

From Henri Coand? International Airport airport, your departure with Aegean Airlines to Athens didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 759 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.

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 Bucharest - Athens is eligible?

For an Aegean Airlines flight from Bucharest to Athens, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 250 €.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Aegean Airlines sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Henri Coand? International Airport, the 250 € compensation is automatic.

In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.
