Departing from Hannover Airport, you are protected by EU law. The distance of 631 km determines the amount of your compensation. The first tier (≤1500 km) applies.
Why are you entitled to 250 €?

- Arrival airport: Charles de Gaulle International Airport (CDG)
- Flight distance: 631 km (~0h47)

Since the landmark CJEU judgment, significant arrival delays are treated like a cancellation for the right to compensation. This significantly strengthened the reach of CE 261.
How to know if the flight Alitalia Hannover - Paris is eligible?
Verify your real landing time at Paris. If Alitalia delayed you over 3h at Charles de Gaulle International Airport, your entitlement is confirmed.
Remember that the distance of 631 km perfectly matches the 250€ compensation tier. This amount is non-negotiable and {the airline|Alitalia} cannot deviate from it through its own terms and conditions.
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 Hannover airport.

The impact of a strike on your Alitalia compensation
If your Alitalia flight from Hannover Airport was disrupted due to an employee strike, you are entitled to {legal compensation|the 250€ payout}.
The key question is invariably: which staff stopped work? If {the answer is yes|it's Alitalia's employees}, {you're entitled to 250€|compensation is owed}. If it's a third party, only care remains.
What are your rights at Hannover airport in case of prolonged wait?
Picture the situation: stranded for hours at Hannover Airport, with no clear information about when you'll fly. In this scenario, Alitalia has no right to abandon you. CE 261 is clear.
The regulation is very clear: assistance is not an optional courtesy from Alitalia. It is a binding duty that can be sanctioned.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Alitalia?
For your Hannover → Paris route, precision is crucial. Record the reasons given by Alitalia staff at Hannover Airport during the incident.
If you lack availability for months of back-and-forth, outsourcing your case to legal experts is the most effective way to see your 250€ arrive in your bank account.
How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
The reality is stark: on average, a passenger acting alone takes 4 to 8 months to obtain their 250€ from Alitalia. Via a specialist, the time falls to 1 to 2 months.
The advantage of delegating your claim to a LegalTech firm is that they can speed up the process through industrialised follow-up and the prospect of litigation.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
Alitalia's use of technical language is often a strategy to encourage travellers to give up on their 250€. Refusals are particularly common on short-haul routes, where amounts seem "small" to airlines.
The prospect of legal proceedings is frequently enough to {make Alitalia yield|unlock payment}. Airlines calculate that litigation costs would far exceed the 250€ claimed.
