If your journey from Nouakchott International Airport to Charles de Gaulle International Airport operated by Air France was disrupted, legal remedies exist when dealing with the carrier.

Don't miss this opportunity: the Air France flight Nouakschott - Paris (3 797 km) qualifies you for 600€ per person under CE 261/2004.

Why are you entitled to 600 €?

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.

This is not a goodwill gesture from Air France, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.

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