Flight compensation Air Canada:
Copenhagen — Oslo

Get your Air Canada flight compensation for the route Copenhagen - Oslo

Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Copenhagen and Oslo with Air Canada? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 510 km of flight, the company Air Canada is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.

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.

Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.

How to know if the flight Air Canada Copenhagen - Oslo is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Oslo Gardermoen Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Air Canada owes you 250 €.

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

What are the conditions for Air Canada to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Air Canada compensation

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

A strike by weather services at Copenhagen Kastrup Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Air Canada has no control.

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

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Air Canada must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Copenhagen.

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Copenhagen Kastrup 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?

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

In the last instance, it is the summons to court that often unlocks the payment. The company Air Canada will always prefer to compromise and pay the 250 € rather than incur additional legal costs for a lost cause in court.
