Flight compensation Air France:
Algier — Marseille

Claim and compensation for flight Air France Algier - Marseille

Your claim for compensation for the Air France flight from Algier to Marseille deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.

Given the route between Algier and Marseille (769 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by Air France.

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.

Did you know? Even if Air France is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Houari Boumediene Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Air France Algier - Marseille is eligible?

To determine if your trip between Algier and Marseille entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.

Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 250 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.

What are the conditions for Air France to compensate you?

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

The nuance is subtle, but essential. By calling on specialized lawyers, they will check the actual flight causative factors in the aeronautical databases reported by the captain on the day of your Algier - Marseille flight.

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

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
