Flight compensation Airlinair:
Brest — Lyon

Get your Airlinair flight compensation for the route Brest - Lyon

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

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 780 km of flight, the company Airlinair is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.

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 travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.

How to know if the flight Airlinair Brest - Lyon is eligible?

For an Airlinair flight from Brest to Lyon, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 250 €.

Keeping your travel documents for the Airlinair BES-LYS flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Brest.

What are the conditions for Airlinair to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Airlinair compensation

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Brest - Lyon trip is due to an internal strike within Airlinair, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Airlinair 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 Brest airport in case of prolonged wait?

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Airlinair must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Brest.

Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Brest Bretagne Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by Airlinair.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Airlinair?

Technology today allows real-time tracking of the progress of your request against Airlinair on your smartphone.

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

Hitting a wall or getting a 'standard' negative response is unfortunately the lot of many passengers who claim only for the prejudice suffered on the Brest - Lyon line.

If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
