Refund and compensation Air Berlin: route Kerkyra/corfu to Berlin

The CFU - TXL route operated by Air Berlin experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 1 527 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

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

  • Arrival airport: Berlin-Tegel International Airport (TXL)
  • Flight distance: 1 527 km (~1h55)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €

Did you know? Even if Air Berlin is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Air Berlin Kerkyra/corfu - Berlin is eligible?

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Air Berlin offers you a voucher for your Kerkyra/corfu - Berlin flight, you can still claim the 400 euros cash provided by law.

  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.

  • Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Air Berlin (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Kerkyra/corfu, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

The impact of a strike on your Air Berlin compensation

Don't be fooled by Air Berlin's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.

Even if 400 € is not payable due to an external strike at Kerkyra/corfu, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Air Berlin.

What are your rights at Kerkyra/corfu airport in case of prolonged wait?

During these long hours of waiting in the Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.

In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.
