What are the conditions for Air One to compensate you?

  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Amsterdam airport.

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Amsterdam, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

The rule is simple: if Air One's employees go on strike, it is a risk that {the airline|Air One} must manage. Consequently, {your compensation|the 250€} is maintained.

The distinction is subtle but essential. By consulting aviation experts, they will verify in official records the actual cause of the delay recorded on the day of your Amsterdam - Milan flight.
