Get your Condor Flugdienst flight compensation for the route Frankfurt - Heraklion

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Condor Flugdienst did not respect its scheduled times for your Frankfurt - Heraklion flight, the law is on your side.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 2 114 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Condor Flugdienst to pay you financial compensation.

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.

Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.

How to know if the flight Condor Flugdienst Frankfurt - Heraklion is eligible?

For an Condor Flugdienst flight from Frankfurt to Heraklion, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 400 €.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Condor Flugdienst sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Frankfurt am Main International Airport, the 400 € compensation is automatic.

What are the conditions for Condor Flugdienst to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Heraklion.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.

A work stoppage of Condor Flugdienst crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 400 €.

Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Condor Flugdienst is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 400 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.
