Process: claim for Air Berlin flight from Stuttgart to Venice
No one enjoys being stranded in the terminal. If Air Berlin didn't honour its scheduled times for your Stuttgart - Venice flight, the law is on your side.
The good news is, for this journey of 426 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 obliges Air Berlin to provide financial compensation. On a short-haul flight like this, a specific compensation tier applies.
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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Stuttgart Airport (STR)
- Arrival airport: Venezia / Tessera - Marco Polo Airport (VCE)
- Flight distance: 426 km (~0h32)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
Bear in mind: only genuine force majeure (exceptional conditions, ATC restrictions, political instability) exempt Air Berlin from this obligation. In all other cases, compensation must be paid.

The impact of a strike on your Air Berlin compensation
The rule is simple: if Air Berlin's employees go on strike, it is a risk that {the airline|Air Berlin} must manage. Consequently, {your compensation|the 250€} is maintained.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

The digital process of expert partners eliminates paperwork: upload documents, digital signature, and email notifications until payment.
