SKY express compensation guide
The airline name alone does not determine your rights. Route, operating carrier and disruption details matter.
Quick answer
Could your flight qualify?
You may be eligible for compensation or other passenger rights after a qualifying SKY express disruption. EC261 is central to many SKY express journeys because it is a Greek EU airline. UK261 and SHY-YOLCU can matter on qualifying UK or Türkiye services actually operated by SKY express. Travaro checks your actual journey before assessing eligibility.

Passenger rights
Which passenger rights could apply?
SKY express operates a substantial domestic Greek network as well as its own services to European cities, London and Türkiye. Travaro checks the actual operating airline, departure point, destination and flight date before assessing which of the supported frameworks can apply.
European Union / EEA
EC261
€250–€600 in qualifying cases
EC261-based rights can apply to qualifying departures from covered EU/EEA airports. For EU/EEA operating carriers, qualifying arrivals from outside the region may also be covered. The direction, carrier and disruption circumstances matter.

UK261
£220–£520 in qualifying cases
UK261 can apply to qualifying UK departures. Some inbound flights operated by covered UK or European carriers may also qualify, but no blanket entitlement applies merely because the itinerary mentions the UK.

SHY-YOLCU
TRY equivalent of €100–€600
Qualifying flights this airline actually operates departing Türkiye may fall within SHY-YOLCU. Seasonal services and flight-date evidence matter; partner-operated codeshares are assessed under the actual operator.

What happened to your SKY express flight?
Delayed flight
A significant arrival delay may qualify depending on the route, applicable passenger-rights rules and cause of the disruption.
Cancelled flight
Cancellation rights can depend on notice timing, the reason for cancellation and any alternative journey offered.
Denied boarding
Involuntary denied boarding can create compensation, alternative travel, refund and care rights in qualifying circumstances.
Missed connection
A connecting journey booked as one itinerary may qualify when a disruption causes you to reach your final destination significantly late.
Important conditions
What can affect your eligibility?
The airline name alone does not establish entitlement. For SKY express, the route, date, cause, operating carrier, disruption type and protected booking all matter.
EC261 depends on your itinerary
EC261-based rights can apply to qualifying departures from covered EU/EEA airports. For EU/EEA operating carriers, qualifying arrivals from outside the region may also be covered. The direction, carrier and disruption circumstances matter.
UK261 depends on your itinerary
UK261 can apply to qualifying UK departures. Some inbound flights operated by covered UK or European carriers may also qualify, but no blanket entitlement applies merely because the itinerary mentions the UK.
SHY-YOLCU depends on your itinerary
Qualifying flights this airline actually operates departing Türkiye may fall within SHY-YOLCU. Seasonal services and flight-date evidence matter; partner-operated codeshares are assessed under the actual operator.
The actual operating carrier matters
SKY express flight GQ must not be confused with a codeshare, a travel-agent itinerary or a connection operated by another airline.
Cancellation notice and alternative flights affect rights
A qualifying cancellation may provide compensation and/or other remedies, depending on cause, advance notice and the alternative journey.
Protected connections are assessed as a journey
Domestic flights within Greece and protected connections via Athens may qualify under EC261 when the remaining entitlement requirements are met.
External causes can affect fixed compensation
Weather, air-traffic restrictions and other genuinely external events can change cash-compensation eligibility while some care or rerouting rights may remain.
