Flight compensation Air France:
Paris — Exeter

How to be compensated by Air France on the Paris (CDG) - Exeter (EXT) line

From Charles de Gaulle International Airport airport, your departure with Air France to Exeter didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

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.

This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.
