Procedure: Alitalia flight compensation from Hanoi to Frankfurt
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Hanoi and Frankfurt with Alitalia? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 8 712 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.
Why are you entitled to 600 €?
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: Noi Bai International Airport (HAN)
- Arrival airport: Frankfurt am Main International Airport (FRA)
- Flight distance: 8 712 km (~10h53)
- Applicable compensation: 600 €
Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.
How to know if the flight Alitalia Hanoi - Frankfurt is eligible?
The compensation for flight HAN-FRA is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.
An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Noi Bai International Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 600 €.
What are the conditions for Alitalia to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Frankfurt.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Hanoi airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Alitalia (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Hanoi, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Alitalia compensation
Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Hanoi - Frankfurt trip is due to an internal strike within Alitalia, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.
Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Alitalia is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 600 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.
What are your rights at Hanoi airport in case of prolonged wait?
Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Alitalia must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Hanoi.
Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Noi Bai International Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by Alitalia.
Steps: how to get your 600 € from Alitalia?
The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Frankfurt am Main International Airport airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.
Partner LegalTech services have tools to check actual Alitalia flight logs and contradict false weather excuses.
How long does it take to get the 600 € compensation?
Patience is often the watchword. Airlines receive thousands of requests weekly and processing your file for the flight from Hanoi to Frankfurt am Main International Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.
A collective action on the Alitalia flight from Hanoi can also be a way to get your funds faster.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
Hitting a wall or getting a 'standard' negative response is unfortunately the lot of many passengers who claim only for the prejudice suffered on the Hanoi - Frankfurt line.
Experts in aviation law have a colossal history of Alitalia convictions, which is a decisive advantage.
