Get your Alitalia flight compensation for the route Dublin - Paris

Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Dublin and Paris with Alitalia? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 785 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Alitalia to pay you financial compensation.

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: Dublin Airport (DUB)
  • Arrival airport: Charles de Gaulle International Airport (CDG)
  • Flight distance: 785 km (~0h59)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

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 Alitalia Dublin - Paris is eligible?

The compensation for flight DUB-CDG is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

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

What are the conditions for Alitalia 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 Dublin airport.
  • Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Alitalia (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

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

The impact of a strike on your Alitalia compensation

If your Alitalia flight from Dublin Airport was cancelled due to an internal union strike, you are eligible for legal repair.

In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.

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

Do not hesitate to request this assistance at the company's counter. If it is refused and you have to advance food or hotel costs at Dublin Airport, keep your receipts carefully to request direct reimbursement.
