Flight compensation Condor Flugdienst:
Frankfurt — Mombasa

How to be compensated by Condor Flugdienst on the Frankfurt (FRA) - Mombasa (MBA) line

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

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 6 707 km of flight, the company Condor Flugdienst is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.

Why are you entitled to 600 €?

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.

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 Condor Flugdienst Frankfurt - Mombasa is eligible?

For an Condor Flugdienst flight from Frankfurt to Mombasa, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 600 €.

An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Frankfurt am Main International Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 600 €.

What are the conditions for Condor Flugdienst to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Condor Flugdienst compensation

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Frankfurt - Mombasa trip is due to an internal strike within Condor Flugdienst, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

Even if 600 € is not payable due to an external strike at Frankfurt, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Condor Flugdienst.

What are your rights at Frankfurt airport in case of prolonged wait?

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Condor Flugdienst must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Frankfurt.

Do not hesitate to request this assistance at the company's counter. If it is refused and you have to advance food or hotel costs at Frankfurt am Main International Airport, keep your receipts carefully to request direct reimbursement.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?

It is not uncommon for a claim for 600 € to be automatically rejected by the company's algorithms under a fallacious generic pretext.

In the last instance, it is the summons to court that often unlocks the payment. The company Condor Flugdienst will always prefer to compromise and pay the 600 € rather than incur additional legal costs for a lost cause in court.
