Flight delayed for more than 2 hours, you have the right to be taken care of

A wildcat strike, also known as an unofficial strike, can be unexpected and leave you stranded. If your Corendon flight has been delayed by over 2 hours, you’re entitled to food, drink, and accommodation if necessary. The airline may provide vouchers for these, but if not, be sure to keep receipts to claim expenses from the airline later.

It’s not mandatory to accept a different flight offered by Corendon.

The airline is obliged to offer you a complimentary alternative flight. They should try to provide you with the earliest possible flight, but if all the flights are fully booked, they might offer you an alternative option that makes your travel plans redundant.

If the airline proposes an alternative flight that doesn’t suit you, you can refuse it and the airline must refund the ticket price. If the airline fails to offer you an alternative or if you find a better option on your own, the airline must compensate you for the price difference between the two tickets.

Tip: Before doing anything, it’s best to wait for a final notice from Corendon

There may be few alternative flights available from other airlines. Of course, you want to secure another flight as soon as possible. However, we advise you not to book an alternative flight yourself before you have received final confirmation from Corendon that your flight has been cancelled. If the strike is called off, you will lose your money.

If you’ve been impacted by Corendon’s strike, you could be eligible for a refund

If the airline’s own employees, such as pilots, cabin crew, or ground staff, go on strike, Corendon may be held responsible. Under Regulation 261/2004, this is not considered a case of force majeure, and you are entitled to compensation if you arrive more than 3 hours late or 1 hour early.

The amount of compensation you receive depends on the distance you traveled and whether your flight was canceled less than 2 weeks before your scheduled departure.

The amount of compensation is not dependent on your ticket price. It is possible that the compensation you receive is higher than the cost of your ticket. The amount of compensation is determined based on the distance of the journey.

Compensation by Distance

• €250 for flights up to 1,500 km
• €400 for flights between 1,500 km and 3,500 km
• €600 for flights over 3,500 km
