How much can I touch when I'm harmed?

It depends especially on the distance between the two airports:

< 1500 Km => 250 €
≤ 3500 Km => 400 €
> 3500 Km => 600 €

Delay

All air passengers face the risk of arriving late for their destinations. Airlines can not avoid flight delays every time, because circumstances can suddenly arise, disrupting their traffic and preventing aircraft from being dislodged as planned.

Indeed, departures that are staggered for twenty or thirty minutes do not usually cause problems to travelers. On the other hand, the situation becomes complicated at the airport when they experience delays of two hours or more.

Indeed, the CE261 / 2004 regulation, which has been in force for several years, protects travelers in the event of a delay of three hours by providing them with compensatory monetary compensation.

Hanging flight

Every year, thousands of flights are canceled at the last minute. This phenomenon, which affects many more passengers during the summer season, including the period of holidays and school holidays, is due in the first place to the saturation of traffic at airports.

As the regulation determining air passenger rights in the European Union provides, the airline must pay compensation of at least 250 euros to compensate each passenger affected by the damage. However, you do not get anything until you claim your rights.

Overbooking

Although they have threatened by a strict law requiring them to pay large amounts of compensation to their passengers injured by overbooking, operators continue to overbook on their various flights because a significant portion of passengers are not aware of the existence of an official regulation that protects them in the event that such harm affects them.

Whether they have chosen to voluntarily disembark from the aircraft or have been forced to respond to the orders of the flight attendants by giving up their seats to other passengers, the victims may in turn force the carrier to pay them compensation and prepare them for a replacement flight, while they are entitled to support throughout their presence at the airport, including assistance, meals and beverages and a place of accommodation if necessary.

Missed connection

Your trip on board can take place in pleasant conditions, at the airport, after passing the security check, the agent asks you to board to settle in your seat. A problem may suddenly arise with the aircraft preventing your take-off. This is indeed one of a dozen obstacles that can cause you moral prejudice before your departure.

The situation becomes even more complicated when you take a flight with two routes, and even worse it is operated by two different airlines. It's enough that the first rotation accumulates a delay of a few minutes, and your next flight takes off without you.

This inconvenience can only be repaired with compensation, however, to obtain it, it is first necessary that a file of complaint is constituted to make complaint against your operator.
