Flight compensation Air Malta:
Munich — Malta

Get your Air Malta flight compensation for the route Munich - Malta

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Air Malta did not respect its scheduled times for your Munich - Malta flight, the law is on your side.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 1 407 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Air Malta to pay you financial 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.

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.

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

The compensation for flight MUC-MLA is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Munich International Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 250 €.

What are the conditions for Air Malta to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Air Malta compensation

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

Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Air Malta is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 250 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.

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

The right to assistance is a crucial provision of the European text. Even before speaking of your 250 €, if the delay stretches at Munich International Airport airport, Air Malta is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Munich International Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.

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

Don't take Air Malta's email for granted claiming that the airport was blocked by snow without checking official reports.
