Flight compensation Airlinair:
Figari — Nantes

Get your Airlinair flight compensation for the route Figari - Nantes

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

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 1 057 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.

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 Airlinair Figari - Nantes is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Nantes Atlantique Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Airlinair owes you 250 €.

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

What are the conditions for Airlinair to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Nantes.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Figari 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 Figari - Nantes 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 Figari 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 Figari Sud-Corse Airport airport, Airlinair is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.

Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Figari Sud-Corse Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by Airlinair.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Airlinair?

The amicable route with Airlinair to recover 250 € often fails without a technical and legal file.

Don't fill out complex forms on the Airlinair website. Go through a passenger defense portal to secure your 250 € indemnity.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

Patience is often the watchword. Airlines receive thousands of requests weekly and processing your file for the flight from Figari to Nantes Atlantique Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.

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 Figari - Nantes line.

In the last instance, it is the summons to court that often unlocks the payment. The company Airlinair will always prefer to compromise and pay the 250 € rather than incur additional legal costs for a lost cause in court.
