Legal compensation: Aigle Azur flight Porto - Paris

Nobody likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Aigle Azur failed to meet its timetable for your Porto → Paris flight, EU law backs you up.

Regulation 261/2004 is clear: for 1 201 km, Aigle Azur is bound by a compensation obligation 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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: Porto (OPO)
  • Arrival airport: Paris-Orly Airport (ORY)
  • Flight distance: 1 201 km (~1h30)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

Too few travellers claim what they're owed (less than 15% on average). Don't let this money go unclaimed: the process, despite its complexity, is an absolute right for every passenger.

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

The indemnity for OPO-ORY is a payout for time lost, not merely a commercial gesture. For this short-haul flight, the 3-hour threshold remains the key criterion.

In summary: three situations trigger the 250€ payment on Aigle Azur Porto-Paris: late arrival over 180 minutes, last-minute cancellation, or involuntary denied boarding. Determine your situation right now.

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 Porto airport.

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Porto, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

The impact of a strike on your Aigle Azur compensation

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

Once the delay exceeds the legal trigger, i.e. 2 hours for flights ≤1500 km, Aigle Azur is obliged to deliver the required assistance to every passenger{s} stranded at Porto.

If you advanced money for a hotel at Porto due to Aigle Azur's disruption, compile all invoices. You can request reimbursement of these costs independently of the 250€ compensation.
