Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Vienna International Airport (VIE)
- Arrival airport: Mikonos Airport (JMK)
- Flight distance: 1 384 km (~1h44)

The rulings of the EU Court of Justice has reinforced these rights since 2004, making Regulation 261/2004 an effective shield against abuses by carriers like Air Berlin.
How to know if the flight Air Berlin Vienna - Mykonos is eligible?
Note your real landing time at Mykonos. If Air Berlin delayed you over 3h at Mikonos Airport, your claim is legitimate.
Remember that the distance of 1 384 km perfectly matches the 250€ compensation tier. This amount is non-negotiable and {the airline|Air Berlin} cannot deviate from it through its own terms and conditions.
What are the conditions for Air Berlin 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 Vienna airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Air Berlin (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Vienna, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Air Berlin compensation
When a strike impacts your route to Mikonos Airport, {the airline|Air Berlin} will likely attempt to dodge liability. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in most cases, valid grounds for refusal.
Question Air Berlin's justification. Some carriers falsely present internal strikes as "extraordinary circumstances" to escape {paying compensation|the 250€}.
What are your rights at Vienna airport in case of prolonged wait?
Most travellers are unaware that Air Berlin is obliged to provide them meals, drinks and communications from the first hours at Vienna International Airport. It's a right, not a favour.
In case of a overnight flight delay, the regulation requires that lodging and transport to and from Vienna International Airport are entirely at the carrier's expense.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Air Berlin?
For your Vienna → Mykonos route, precision is crucial. Record the reasons given by Air Berlin staff at Vienna International Airport during the incident.
If you lack availability for months of back-and-forth, outsourcing your case to legal experts is the most effective way to see your 250€ arrive in your bank account.
How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
Don't be surprised if you get no reply within two weeks. The average processing time for a carrier like Air Berlin to finalise a compensation case typically ranges from 1 to 3 months.
Modern platforms reduce the average timeline to a few weeks for over 90% of cases {like yours|such as Air Berlin Vienna→Mykonos}.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
An unjustified rejection from Air Berlin is a tactic that specialist lawyers know how to dismantle by citing the right articles of Regulation 261.
For your 250€, don't negotiate down with Air Berlin without the support of a expert who understands the true value of your case for Vienna-Mykonos.
