Did you have an Aegean Airlines flight cancelled, a long delay, or problems with your Aegean ticket? If so, you may well be entitled to Aegean compensation under European legislation EC 261/2004. Aegean Airlines, the largest airline in Greece and a member of Star Alliance, operates from its Athens hub to destinations in Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa. If your Aegean flight arrived more than 3 hours late, was cancelled, or you were denied boarding, you can claim compensation of up to €600.
You can file a compensation claim if you experienced one of the following situations:
Aegean flight cancelled without at least 14 days' notice
Delayed Aegean flight that arrived at the destination more than 3 hours late
Aegean flight change that affected your journey
Denied boarding due to overbooking
Missed connection due to an Aegean flight delay
These situations occur frequently with cancelled Aegean flights, cancelled Aegean routes, or when an Aegean flight cancellation occurs for operational reasons.
Depending on the case, you are entitled to one or more of the following options:
Refund of your Aegean plane ticket
An alternative flight to your final destination
Cash compensation from Aegean under European legislation
€250 — flights under 1,500 km
€400 — flights between 1,500 and 3,500 km
€600 — flights over 3,500 km
If you accepted an alternative flight that arrived only 2–4 hours later, the amount may be reduced by 50%.

Yes. Regulation EC 261/2004 applies to all flights operated within the EU, including domestic Greek routes. Greece is an EU member state, so whether you fly Athens–Thessaloniki or Athens–Rhodes, you are protected by European legislation.
Yes. Olympic Air is Aegean's subsidiary, and being transferred to an alternative flight does not eliminate the right to compensation if the original cancellation was communicated less than 14 days in advance. Compensation is calculated against the scheduled arrival time of the original cancelled flight.
EC 261/2004 compensation covers the standard amount (up to €600) and direct expenses (accommodation, food, transport). Indirect losses such as a missed holiday may be recoverable through a separate civil action, but are not explicitly covered by EC 261. AirClaim handles the recovery of the statutory compensation.
If both flight segments are on the same ticket and you missed the connection due to a delay on the first Aegean flight, you are entitled to compensation for the entire journey, plus free rerouting or a refund. Aegean is obliged to help you reach your final destination.
