Ryanair flight Paphos - Kaunas: your rights to compensation

Every year, thousands of passengers face disruptions on Paphos → Kaunas with Ryanair. Few realise they can claim a legal payout.

Your compensation amount doesn't depend on the ticket price. Only the distance of 2 343 km dictates the indemnity under EU law.

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.

  • Departure airport: Paphos International Airport (PFO)
  • Arrival airport: Kaunas International Airport (KUN)
  • Flight distance: 2 343 km (~2h56)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €
