Flight compensation Air France:
Dublin — Paris

Refund and compensation Air France: route Dublin to Paris

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

By taking off from Dublin Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 785 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.

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

How to know if the flight Air France Dublin - Paris is eligible?

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

In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Dublin, the regulation applies in the same way.

What are the conditions for Air France to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Air France compensation

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

Even if 250 € is not payable due to an external strike at Dublin, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Air France.

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

During these long hours of waiting in the Dublin Airport terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.

In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Dublin Airport airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.
