Get your Ryanair flight compensation for the route Stockholm - Thessaloniki

From Stockholm Skavsta Airport airport, your departure with Ryanair to Thessaloniki didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 2 076 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Ryanair to pay you financial compensation.

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: Stockholm Skavsta Airport (NYO)
  • Arrival airport: Thessaloniki Macedonia International Airport (SKG)
  • Flight distance: 2 076 km (~2h36)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €

This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.

How to know if the flight Ryanair Stockholm - Thessaloniki is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Thessaloniki Macedonia International Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Ryanair owes you 400 €.

Keeping your travel documents for the Ryanair NYO-SKG flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Stockholm.

What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?

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

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

The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation

Don't be fooled by Ryanair's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.

A strike by weather services at Stockholm Skavsta Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Ryanair has no control.

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

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Ryanair must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Stockholm.

Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Stockholm Skavsta Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by Ryanair.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Ryanair?

The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Thessaloniki Macedonia International Airport airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.

Don't fill out complex forms on the Ryanair website. Go through a passenger defense portal to secure your 400 € indemnity.

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 Stockholm to Thessaloniki Macedonia International Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.

A collective action on the Ryanair flight from Stockholm can also be a way to get your funds faster.

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

It is not uncommon for a claim for 400 € to be automatically rejected by the company's algorithms under a fallacious generic pretext.

Experts in aviation law have a colossal history of Ryanair convictions, which is a decisive advantage.
