Leaving Moss Airport, Rygge, you are covered by European legislation. The distance of 2 291 km sets the tier of your legal indemnity. Your flight sits in the middle bracket.

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: Moss Airport, Rygge (RYG)
  • Arrival airport: Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport (CFU)
  • Flight distance: 2 291 km (~2h52)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €

The rulings of the EU Court of Justice has reinforced these rights since 2004, making Regulation 261/2004 an effective shield against abuses by carriers like Ryanair.

How to know if the flight Ryanair Rygge - Kerkyra/corfu is eligible?

To determine if your flight between Rygge and Kerkyra/corfu is eligible for a payout, the determining criterion is the arrival delay ({not the departure delay|measured at Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport}). It must be over 3 hours.

Even if Ryanair reroutes you, the 400€ compensation still applies if the arrival at Kerkyra/corfu exceeds 3 hours.

What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?

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

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

The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation

Be wary by Ryanair's evasive wording: a "wildcat" or planned strike remains the managerial responsibility of the airline. Regardless of distance, the principle remains identical for strikes.

Even if the 400€ are not owed due to an external strike at Rygge, care (food/accommodation) remains mandatory Ryanair. Keep this in mind.

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

Once the delay exceeds the legal trigger, i.e. 3 hours for flights between 1500 and 3500 km, Ryanair is obliged to deliver the required assistance to every passenger{s} stranded at Rygge.

In case of a overnight flight delay, the regulation requires that lodging and transport to and from Moss Airport, Rygge are entirely at the carrier's expense.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Ryanair?

For your Rygge → Kerkyra/corfu route, precision is crucial. Record the reasons given by Ryanair staff at Moss Airport, Rygge during the incident.

If you lack availability for months of back-and-forth, outsourcing your case to legal experts is the most effective way to see your 400€ arrive in your bank account.

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

Patience is often key. Airlines receive a huge volume of claims every week and your Rygge to Ioannis Kapodistrias International Airport case can stall if you remain passive.

Technology now allow you to follow the progress of your claim against Ryanair on your phone. For a medium-haul, expect around 6 to 10 weeks with an expert.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?

It is quite common for Ryanair's systems to refuse by default your initial claim under a generic pretext that is unfounded.

If you are confident of your eligibility, you can approach the national aviation body of the departure country, or better still, escalate the case to court with a specialist legal counsel.
