Flight compensation Air Malta:
Malta — Munich

Legal payout: Air Malta flight Malta → Munich

Your Air Malta flight from Malta to Munich was disrupted? Act now: CE 261 entitles you to compensation.

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.

Too few passengers exercise their rights (only one in seven on average). Don't allow this compensation slip away: the procedure, although bureaucratic, is guaranteed for all travellers.

How to know if the flight Air Malta Malta - Munich is eligible?

The 3-hour threshold is measured at the moment the aircraft doors are unlocked at Munich International Airport. If the delay is confirmed and the disruption is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Air Malta owes you 250€.

An sudden suppression or a rerouted flight from Luqa Airport without a satisfactory solution qualifies for the same 250€ indemnity.

What are the conditions for Air Malta to compensate you?

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