CE 261 compensation: Condor Flugdienst flight Tenerife - Stuttgart

Nobody likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Condor Flugdienst failed to meet its timetable for your Tenerife → Stuttgart flight, EU law backs you up.

Regulation 261/2004 is clear: for 3 184 km, Condor Flugdienst is bound by a compensation obligation if boarding is denied.

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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: Tenerife South Airport (TFS)
  • Arrival airport: Stuttgart Airport (STR)
  • Flight distance: 3 184 km (~3h59)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €

Unlike what {many think|Condor Flugdienst might suggest}, this payout doesn't depend on the fare. A €30 ticket gives the same rights as an €800 booking.

How to know if the flight Condor Flugdienst Tenerife - Stuttgart is eligible?

The 3-hour threshold is measured at the moment the aircraft doors are unlocked at Stuttgart Airport. If the delay is confirmed and the disruption is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Condor Flugdienst owes you 400€.

An sudden suppression or a rerouted flight from Tenerife South Airport without a satisfactory solution qualifies for the same 400€ indemnity.

What are the conditions for Condor Flugdienst to compensate you?

  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.

  • Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Condor Flugdienst (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Tenerife, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

The impact of a strike on your Condor Flugdienst compensation

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

The duty of assistance is a essential provision of the EU text. Independently of the 400€ question, if the delay extends at Tenerife South Airport, Condor Flugdienst must distribute meal vouchers.
