Flight compensation Air Berlin:
Amman — Frankfurt

Claim and compensation for flight Air Berlin Amman - Frankfurt

If your trip departing from Queen Alia International Airport and arriving at Frankfurt am Main International Airport operated by Air Berlin was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

By taking off from Queen Alia International Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 3 045 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.

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

How to know if the flight Air Berlin Amman - Frankfurt is eligible?

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Air Berlin offers you a voucher for your Amman - Frankfurt 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 Air Berlin to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Air Berlin compensation

Don't be fooled by Air Berlin's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.

Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Air Berlin is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 400 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.

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

If Queen Alia International Airport airport becomes your temporary residence because of Air Berlin, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.

In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Queen Alia International Airport airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Air Berlin?

Starting a procedure against Air Berlin for a flight from Amman to Frankfurt can be complex if you decide to go it alone. Customer service often tends to invoke the weather to clear themselves.

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 Air Berlin sometimes prioritize cases defended by law firms to avoid late interests.

Technology today allows real-time tracking of the progress of your request against Air Berlin on your smartphone.

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

Don't take Air Berlin's email for granted claiming that the airport was blocked by snow without checking official reports.

Experts in aviation law have a colossal history of Air Berlin convictions, which is a decisive advantage.
