Process: claim for Olympic Airlines flight from Kastelorizo to Rhodos

No one enjoys being stranded in the terminal. If Olympic Airlines didn't honour its scheduled times for your Kastelorizo - Rhodos flight, the law is on your side.

The good news is, for this journey of 137 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 obliges Olympic Airlines to provide financial compensation. On a short-haul flight like this, a specific compensation tier applies.

Why are you entitled to 250 €?

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: Kastelorizo Airport (KZS)
  • Arrival airport: Diagoras Airport (RHO)
  • Flight distance: 137 km (~0h10)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

Note: only extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather, airspace closures, security threats) relieve Olympic Airlines from payment. Otherwise, the payout is owed.

How to know if the flight Olympic Airlines Kastelorizo - Rhodos is eligible?

Whether your Olympic Airlines flight Kastelorizo-Rhodos was delayed or boarding was denied, the 250€ compensation may apply for each case.

An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Kastelorizo Airport without an immediate alternative entitles you to the same 250€ payout.

What are the conditions for Olympic Airlines to compensate you?

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

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

By opting for a platform with no upfront costs, you have nothing to lose. If the 250€ case fails, you pay nothing. It's that simple.
