Flight compensation Air Berlin:
Palma de Mallorca — Menorca

Refund and compensation Air Berlin: route Palma de Mallorca to Menorca

If your trip departing from Palma De Mallorca Airport and arriving at Menorca Airport operated by Air Berlin was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

By taking off from Palma De Mallorca Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 131 km determines your legal compensation level.

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.

The case law of the CJEU has strengthened these rights over the years, transforming Regulation 261/2004 into an effective shield against abuses by carriers like Air Berlin.

How to know if the flight Air Berlin Palma de Mallorca - Menorca is eligible?

Also note that the distance of 131 km perfectly justifies the compensation bracket of 250 €. This amount is net and the airline cannot derogate from it in its own terms and conditions.

• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
