Corfu Airport (CFU) Flight Compensation: Complete Guide

Q: What compensation am I entitled to for a flight delay at Corfu Airport?

Under EU Regulation 261/2004, passengers departing from Corfu (an EU airport in Greece) are entitled to fixed compensation when their flight is delayed by 3 or more hours at the final destination. The amount is distance-based: €250 for flights up to 1,500 km, €400 for intra-EU flights over 1,500 km and all flights between 1,500 and 3,500 km (covering most UK and German charter routes to Corfu), and €600 for flights exceeding 3,500 km. These amounts cannot be reduced by airline terms and conditions. If the airline offers re-routing that reduces your delay, they may apply a 50% reduction, but they must still offer this or the full cash payment. Airlines are also required to provide meals, refreshments, and accommodation regardless of whether the disruption qualifies as extraordinary circumstances.

Q: My flight was diverted away from Corfu due to crosswinds. Can I claim compensation?

Crosswind diversions from Corfu are more common than at many other Greek island airports, primarily because of the airport's compact runway and its exposure to prevailing winds from the Adriatic and Ionian Sea. If your flight was diverted to another airport — typically Preveza, Athens, or occasionally Thessaloniki — and you arrived at your final destination more than 3 hours late, you may be entitled to EU261 compensation. The key legal question is whether the crosswind conditions were truly extraordinary and unavoidable. If weather was within foreseeable seasonal norms, or if the airline failed to take all reasonable measures (such as monitoring forecasts and adjusting scheduling), a compensation claim can succeed. Do not assume an airline's weather excuse is automatically valid — get a professional assessment of your specific case.

Q: I was on a package holiday charter from the UK. Are my EU261 rights the same as a scheduled flight passenger?

Yes, EU261 applies equally to charter and scheduled flights. The type of booking arrangement — package holiday, standalone flight, or direct booking — does not affect your EU261 entitlement. What matters is that your flight departed from an EU airport (Corfu) or was operated by an EU carrier. British passengers on charter flights from Corfu back to the UK are fully covered by EU261 for the return leg (Greek departure) and by UK261 for the outbound leg (UK departure). German passengers flying Corfu–Germany on charter are protected by EU261 in both directions, as both Greece and Germany are EU member states and both legs involve EU airports or EU-registered carriers. One additional point for package holiday passengers: the EU Package Travel Directive provides further protections alongside EU261, potentially entitling you to additional remedies from your tour operator.

Q: The airline says my Corfu cancellation was due to extraordinary circumstances. What does this mean?

Extraordinary circumstances under EU261 Article 5(3) are events beyond the airline's control that could not have been avoided even if all reasonable measures had been taken. Genuine examples include severe unforeseeable weather events, security threats, air traffic control strikes, and bird strikes. However, airlines frequently misapply this exemption. Common scenarios at Corfu that do NOT automatically qualify as extraordinary circumstances include: routine crosswind conditions that are part of Corfu's normal meteorological pattern; technical faults that were or should have been detected in routine maintenance; crew shortages caused by inadequate scheduling; and knock-on delays from earlier flights in the airline's rotation. Even where extraordinary circumstances are valid, the airline must still provide duty of care (meals, accommodation). If you received neither compensation nor care, the airline has likely violated EU261 regardless of the circumstances claimed.

Q: How do I file an EU261 claim after being delayed at Corfu Airport?

The process starts with a formal written claim submitted directly to the airline. Your claim letter should reference EU Regulation 261/2004, state your flight number and date, describe the delay or cancellation, specify the compensation amount you are claiming based on your flight distance, and request a response within 14 days. Keep copies of all documentation: boarding pass, booking confirmation, delay notification (if any), receipts for expenses incurred, and a record of your actual arrival time at the final destination. If the airline rejects your claim or fails to respond within 6–8 weeks, you can escalate to the Hellenic Civil Aviation Authority (HCAA / ΥΠΑ) for free via ypa.gr. Alternatively, you can engage a specialist service like Avioza, which handles the entire process on a no win, no fee basis.

Q: What is the time limit for claiming compensation for a Corfu flight delay?

The applicable limitation period depends on where you choose to litigate. If you file a claim in Greek courts — which have jurisdiction over flights departing from Corfu — the Greek Civil Code Article 937 provides a 5-year limitation period from the date of the disrupted flight. This is one of the most generous time windows in the EU. If you are a UK passenger choosing to file in UK courts, the Limitation Act 1980 provides a 6-year period in England and Wales. German passengers filing in German courts face a 3-year limitation period under the Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch (BGB). In all cases, acting promptly is advisable because documentary evidence — particularly flight data records and airline communications — is easier to obtain and more reliable when accessed soon after the disruption.
