How to know if the flight Air Berlin Berlin - Vienna is eligible?
Check your actual arrival time at Vienna. If Air Berlin made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Vienna International Airport, your claim is legitimate.

Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Vienna.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Berlin airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Air Berlin (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Berlin, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
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 250 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.
