Condor refund for strike : When Can I Claim?
Whenever Condor employees decide to go on strike whilst this action results in flight operations being impaired or disabled, the airline must pay compensation for its actions and caused inconvenience.
That ultimately gives us the most important question to ask -- Who is on a strike? Is it the Condor airline, and their own staff? Once it is validated that the flight operator, in this case Condor, is at fault, the onus to compensate passengers for any cancelled or delayed flights caused as a result of the strike action is, thanks to EU regulation 261, on them -- under the following circumstances:
- You had a flight disrupted by a Condor cabin crew (employee) strike.
- Your flight was delayed for 3 or more hours or cancelled less than 14 days before it was due to depart.
- You had a confirmed flight reservation.
- The disruption has happened in a space of the past 3 years.
- If you were given an alternative flight and your arrival time was remarkably different from the original supposed arrival.
- In case of an undue event of denied boarding.

Condor Strike Compensation: When do I NOT qualify?
Condor strike compensation claims are very much dependent on who calls the strike. Condor may argue that strikes are ‘extraordinary circumstance’ and refuse to pay compensation as a result. This makes it often tough to deal with an airline, especially when trying to claim additional monetary compensation. Luckily, this is one of the reasons we established our compensation advisor. Read more about compensation for airline strikes.
Reason of strikes Condor had (that generally don’t qualify for monetary compensation):
- Strike due to traffic limitations made by air traffic control and/or airport staff
- Strike due to baggage handlers
- Strike due to political instability
- Strike due to adverse weather conditions
- Strike due to safety risks
- Strike due to industrial action
Traditionally, airlines are exempted from the obligation of financial claims in the event of airport employee or air traffic controller strikes (the “ground staff”). Similar strike cases are circumstances an airline itself does not have a bearing on.
