Your entitlement: Air Algerie flight from Lille to Oran
You were due to travel with Air Algerie from Lille to Oran and things went wrong? Regulation CE 261/2004 guarantees a payout in most cases.
With 1 688 km between Lille-Lesquin Airport and Es Senia Airport, CE 261 guarantees a lump-sum compensation of 400€ per person.
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.

- Arrival airport: Es Senia Airport (ORN)
- Flight distance: 1 688 km (~2h07)

This is not a goodwill gesture from Air Algerie, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.

The impact of a strike on your Air Algerie compensation
The CJEU has definitively ruled: staff strikes are not force majeure for carriers. This precedent is authoritative across all 27 EU member states.
