Claim and compensation for flight Airlinair Lille - Figari

If your trip departing from Lille-Lesquin Airport and arriving at Figari Sud-Corse Airport operated by Airlinair was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 1 109 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.

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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: Lille-Lesquin Airport (LIL)
  • Arrival airport: Figari Sud-Corse Airport (FSC)
  • Flight distance: 1 109 km (~1h23)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

This is not a commercial gesture from Airlinair, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.

How to know if the flight Airlinair Lille - Figari is eligible?

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Airlinair offers you a voucher for your Lille - Figari flight, you can still claim the 250 euros cash provided by law.

Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 250 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.

What are the conditions for Airlinair to compensate you?

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

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

The impact of a strike on your Airlinair compensation

Don't be fooled by Airlinair'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, 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 Lille airport in case of prolonged wait?

During these long hours of waiting in the Lille-Lesquin Airport terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.

In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Lille-Lesquin Airport airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Airlinair?

For your Lille - Figari trip, every minute counts. Note the reasons given by Airlinair staff at the Lille-Lesquin Airport counter during the incident.

If you don't have the time or the desire to engage in long email exchanges, delegating your claim to lawyers is the most effective solution to see your 250 € arrive in your bank account.

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

Some passengers wait more than 6 months for a response from Airlinair. An expert can reduce this time by half.

By entrusting the recovery of your 250 € to a trusted third party, you save yourself months of waiting and the anxiety of seeing your case closed without follow-up, as reminders are managed by aviation law professionals.

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

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

Experts in aviation law have a colossal history of Airlinair convictions, which is a decisive advantage.
