Flight compensation Airlinair:
Nantes — Milano

Procedure: Airlinair flight compensation from Nantes to Milano

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

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 810 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.

Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.

How to know if the flight Airlinair Nantes - Milano is eligible?

For an Airlinair flight from Nantes to Milano, 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 NTE-MXP flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Nantes.

What are the conditions for Airlinair to compensate you?

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

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.

Even if 250 € is not payable due to an external strike at Nantes, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Airlinair.

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

In addition to financial compensation, the European regulation guarantees what is called a 'right to care.' If your flight is delayed departing from Nantes Atlantique Airport, Airlinair must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.

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

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Airlinair?

The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Malpensa International Airport airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.

Partner LegalTech services have tools to check actual Airlinair flight logs and contradict false weather excuses.

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.

A collective action on the Airlinair flight from Nantes can also be a way to get your funds faster.

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.

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.
