Flight compensation Airlinair:
Tarbes — Paris

Procedure: Airlinair flight compensation from Tarbes to Paris

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

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 643 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 Tarbes - Paris is eligible?

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

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Airlinair sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Tarbes, the 250 € compensation is automatic.

What are the conditions for Airlinair to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Paris.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Tarbes 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 Tarbes, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Airlinair.

What are your rights at Tarbes 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 Tarbes, Airlinair must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Tarbes and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.
