How to be compensated by Condor Flugdienst on the Hurghada (HRG) - Hamburg (HAM) line

Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Hurghada and Hamburg with Condor Flugdienst? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 3 530 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.

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