Get your Big Sky Airlines flight compensation for the route Preveza - Kerkyra/corfu

Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Preveza and Kerkyra/corfu with Big Sky 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 105 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Big Sky 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: Aktion National Airport (PVK)
  • Arrival airport: Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport (CFU)
  • Flight distance: 105 km (~0h08)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.

How to know if the flight Big Sky Airlines Preveza - Kerkyra/corfu is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Big Sky Airlines owes you 250 €.

An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Aktion National Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 250 €.

What are the conditions for Big Sky Airlines to compensate you?

  • Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Kerkyra/corfu.
  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Preveza airport.
  • Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Big Sky Airlines (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

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

The impact of a strike on your Big Sky Airlines compensation

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Preveza - Kerkyra/corfu trip is due to an internal strike within Big Sky Airlines, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

Even if 250 € is not payable due to an external strike at Preveza, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Big Sky Airlines.

What are your rights at Preveza 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 Aktion National Airport airport, Big Sky Airlines is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Aktion National Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Big Sky Airlines?

The amicable route with Big Sky Airlines to recover 250 € often fails without a technical and legal file.

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 Big Sky Airlines.

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

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

A collective action on the Big Sky Airlines flight from Preveza 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 Preveza - Kerkyra/corfu line.

In the last instance, it is the summons to court that often unlocks the payment. The company Big Sky Airlines will always prefer to compromise and pay the 250 € rather than incur additional legal costs for a lost cause in court.
