Flight compensation Air France:
Paris — Oslo

Complete guide: Air France compensation Paris - Oslo

You travelled with Air France from Paris to Oslo and the flight was disrupted? EU law mandates compensation when the airline is at fault.

With 1 349 km between Charles de Gaulle International Airport and Oslo Gardermoen Airport, EU regulation grants you a fixed indemnity of 250€ per passenger.

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.

Good to know? Even if Air France is a airline based outside the EU, if the flight takes off from Charles de Gaulle International Airport, CE 261 applies in full.

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

Distinguish between fare reimbursement and statutory indemnity! Even if Air France proposes a voucher for your Paris - Oslo flight, you can still claim the cash sum of 250€ guaranteed by the regulation.

What many don't know: you have up to 5 years to submit your request against Air France for the Paris-Oslo flight. Don't think it's too late even after several months.

What are the conditions for Air France to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Oslo.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Paris 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 misled by Air France's vague terms: a unannounced or declared strike is the operational burden of the airline. On this short-haul, the internal/external strike distinction is the same.

An aviation law expert can quickly determine whether the strike that disrupted your Air France Paris-Oslo flight was the airline's responsibility or a third party's.

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

Once the delay exceeds the legal trigger, i.e. 2 hours for flights ≤1500 km, Air France is obliged to deliver the required assistance to every passenger{s} stranded at Paris.

The law is unambiguous: care is never a goodwill gesture from Air France. It is a regulatory requirement enforceable in court.

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