      Air Passenger Rights at Vnukovo International Airport (VKO)

      If your flight from Vnukovo International Airport is delayed, cancelled, or you are denied boarding, you may be entitled to compensation under EU Regulation 261/2004 (EU 261/EC 261) – provided your flight was departing from an EU airport, or arriving in the EU with an EU-based airline. This regulation protects passenger rights and offers compensation for flight disruptions due to circumstances within the airline’s control.

      According to EU 261, you are eligible for compensation if your VKO flight to the EU is operated by an EU-based airline, or if your flight departs from an EU airport. Compensation amounts depend on the distance of your flight and the length of the delay upon arrival. For flights up to 1,500 kilometers, you may claim up to €250 per passenger. For flights between 1,500 km and 3,500 km, compensation can reach €400. For flights over 3,500 kilometers, compensation may be as high as €600 per person.

      • Flight distance up to 1,500 km: up to €250 compensation
      • Flight distance 1,500 km – 3,500 km: up to €400 compensation

      If your flight from Vnukovo to the EU is delayed by more than 3 hours, or cancelled with less than 14 days' notice, you may be eligible for compensation. Airlines must also provide care such as meals, refreshments, and accommodation if necessary. However, compensation may not apply in extraordinary circumstances such as severe weather or air traffic control strikes.

      To claim compensation, gather your flight details, booking confirmation, and any communication with the airline.
