Steps: how to get your 400 € from Aeroflot Russian Airlines?

The key advantage: they absorb 100% of the risk and only charge when the 400€ case is won.
How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?
The reality is stark: on average, a passenger acting alone takes 4 to 8 months to obtain their 400€ from Aeroflot Russian Airlines. Via a specialist, the time falls to 1 to 2 months.
