Get your Air Algerie flight compensation for the route Marseille - Oran

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

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.

  • Flight distance: 1 003 km (~1h15)

Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.
