Flight compensation Aer Lingus:
Marseille — Dublin

Get your Aer Lingus flight compensation for the route Marseille - Dublin

From Marseille Provence Airport airport, your departure with Aer Lingus to Dublin didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 1 393 km of flight, the company Aer Lingus is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.

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.

Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.

How to know if the flight Aer Lingus Marseille - Dublin is eligible?

For an Aer Lingus flight from Marseille to Dublin, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 250 €.

Keeping your travel documents for the Aer Lingus MRS-DUB flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Marseille.

What are the conditions for Aer Lingus to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Dublin.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Marseille airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Aer Lingus (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Aer Lingus compensation

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Marseille - Dublin trip is due to an internal strike within Aer Lingus, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

A strike by weather services at Marseille Provence Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Aer Lingus has no control.

What are your rights at Marseille airport in case of prolonged wait?

The right to assistance is a crucial provision of the European text. Even before speaking of your 250 €, if the delay stretches at Marseille Provence Airport airport, Aer Lingus is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Marseille Provence Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Aer Lingus?

The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Dublin Airport airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.

Partner LegalTech services have tools to check actual Aer Lingus flight logs and contradict false weather excuses.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

Patience is often the watchword. Airlines receive thousands of requests weekly and processing your file for the flight from Marseille to Dublin Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.

Technology today allows real-time tracking of the progress of your request against Aer Lingus on your smartphone.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?

It is not uncommon for a claim for 250 € to be automatically rejected by the company's algorithms under a fallacious generic pretext.

If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
