Flight compensation Aegean Airlines:
Kos — Kalymnos

Get your Aegean Airlines flight compensation for the route Kos - Kalymnos

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

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 23 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 Kos - Kalymnos is eligible?

The compensation for flight KGS-JKL is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

Keeping your travel documents for the Aegean Airlines KGS-JKL flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Kos.

What are the conditions for Aegean Airlines to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Kalymnos.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Kos 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

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Kos - Kalymnos trip is due to an internal strike within Aegean Airlines, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

A strike by weather services at Kos Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Aegean Airlines has no control.

What are your rights at Kos airport in case of prolonged wait?

The right to assistance is a crucial provision of the European text. Even before speaking of your 250 €, if the delay stretches at Kos Airport airport, Aegean Airlines is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.

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

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Aegean Airlines?

The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Kalymnos airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.

Don't fill out complex forms on the Aegean Airlines website. Go through a passenger defense portal to secure your 250 € indemnity.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

Airlines like Aegean Airlines sometimes prioritize cases defended by law firms to avoid late interests.

Technology today allows real-time tracking of the progress of your request against Aegean Airlines on your smartphone.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?

Don't take Aegean Airlines's email for granted claiming that the airport was blocked by snow without checking official reports.

If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
