Flight compensation Air Berlin:
Belgrade — Berlin

Get your Air Berlin flight compensation for the route Belgrade - Berlin

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

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 1 002 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Air Berlin to pay you financial compensation.

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.

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.

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

The compensation for flight BEG-TXL is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Air Berlin sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport, the 250 € compensation is automatic.

What are the conditions for Air Berlin to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Berlin.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Belgrade 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

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Belgrade - Berlin trip is due to an internal strike within Air Berlin, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

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 250 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.

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

In addition to financial compensation, the European regulation guarantees what is called a 'right to care.' If your flight is delayed departing from Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport, Air Berlin must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.

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