Compensation & claim for Condor Flugdienst: Frankfurt to Kos

A cancellation on Condor Flugdienst Frankfurt → Kos qualifies you for up to 400€. Check how to claim.

Leaving Frankfurt am Main International Airport, you are covered by European legislation. The distance of 2 088 km sets the tier of your legal indemnity. Your flight sits in the middle bracket.

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.

Since the Sturgeon ruling of 2009, delays over 3 hours are treated the same as cancellations regarding payout entitlement. This greatly broadened the scope of the regulation.

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