Flight compensation Aigle Azur:
Oran — Paris

Legal right to compensation: Aigle Azur flight between Oran and Paris

If your trip departing from Es Senia Airport and arriving at Charles de Gaulle International Airport operated by Aigle Azur was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

By taking off from Es Senia Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 1 511 km determines your legal compensation level.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

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.

Did you know? Even if Aigle Azur is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Es Senia Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Aigle Azur Oran - Paris is eligible?

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Aigle Azur offers you a voucher for your Oran - Paris flight, you can still claim the 400 euros cash provided by law.

Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 400 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.

What are the conditions for Aigle Azur to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Aigle Azur compensation

A work stoppage of Aigle Azur crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 400 €.

Even if 400 € is not payable due to an external strike at Oran, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Aigle Azur.

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

Don't buy your food without first asking Aigle Azur for coupons. If you do, keep your receipts carefully.

Your forced stay at Oran shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your ORN-CDG trip.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Aigle Azur?

It is strongly recommended to keep your Aigle Azur boarding pass and any communication relating to the delay suffered at Es Senia Airport airport. These documents will be vital for your case.

If you don't have the time or the desire to engage in long email exchanges, delegating your claim to lawyers is the most effective solution to see your 400 € arrive in your bank account.

How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?

Airlines like Aigle Azur sometimes prioritize cases defended by law firms to avoid late interests.

A collective action on the Aigle Azur flight from Oran can also be a way to get your funds faster.

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

It is not uncommon for a claim for 400 € to be automatically rejected by the company's algorithms under a fallacious generic pretext.

In the last instance, it is the summons to court that often unlocks the payment. The company Aigle Azur will always prefer to compromise and pay the 400 € rather than incur additional legal costs for a lost cause in court.
