Dublin — Nice

Legal right to compensation: Aer Lingus flight between Dublin and Nice

Your claim for compensation for the Aer Lingus flight from Dublin to Nice deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.

Given the route between Dublin and Nice (1 466 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by Aer Lingus.

Why are you entitled to 250 €?

The European Regulation EC 261/2004 is very strict regarding air passenger rights. The amount of fixed compensation does not depend on the price of your ticket, but only on the flight distance.
