Flight compensation Air Europa:
Fuerteventura — Madrid

Get your Air Europa flight compensation for the route Fuerteventura - Madrid

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

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 1 634 km of flight, the company Air Europa is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

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 Europa Fuerteventura - Madrid is eligible?

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

An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Fuerteventura Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 400 €.

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

The impact of a strike on your Air Europa compensation

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Madrid Barajas International Airport, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Fuerteventura Airport airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 400 € will not be due.
