Amsterdam — Abu Dhabi

Procedure: Air Baltic flight compensation from Amsterdam to Abu Dhabi

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Air Baltic did not respect its scheduled times for your Amsterdam - Abu Dhabi flight, the law is on your side.

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 5 192 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.

Why are you entitled to 600 €?
