Flight compensation Condor Flugdienst:
Kos — Frankfurt

How to be compensated by Condor Flugdienst on the Kos (KGS) - Frankfurt (FRA) line

From Kos Airport airport, your departure with Condor Flugdienst to Frankfurt didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 2 088 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.

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.

Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.

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

The compensation for flight KGS-FRA is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Condor Flugdienst sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Kos 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 Frankfurt.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Kos 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

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 €.

Even if 400 € is not payable due to an external strike at Kos, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Condor Flugdienst.

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

In addition to financial compensation, the European regulation guarantees what is called a 'right to care.' If your flight is delayed departing from Kos Airport, Condor Flugdienst must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.

Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Kos Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by Condor Flugdienst.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Condor Flugdienst?

The amicable route with Condor Flugdienst to recover 400 € often fails without a technical and legal file.

Partner LegalTech services have tools to check actual Condor Flugdienst flight logs and contradict false weather excuses.

How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?

Patience is often the watchword. Airlines receive thousands of requests weekly and processing your file for the flight from Kos to Frankfurt am Main International Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.

A collective action on the Condor Flugdienst flight from Kos 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 Kos - Frankfurt line.

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 400 € rather than incur additional legal costs for a lost cause in court.
