Flight compensation Airlinair:
Nice — Brest

Procedure: Airlinair flight compensation from Nice to Brest

From Nice airport, your departure with Airlinair to Brest didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 1 042 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.

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Brest.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Nice airport.
