EU-guaranteed payout: Alitalia flight Jeddah → Milano
No one enjoys being stranded in the terminal. If Alitalia didn't honour its scheduled times for your Jeddah - Milano flight, the law is on your side.
Regardless of the fare €50 or €500, the indemnity is fixed: 600€ per passenger. {The distance|The 3 833 km} is what counts, not the fare. Long-haul flights benefit from the highest tier.
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.

- Departure airport: King Abdulaziz International Airport (JED)
- Arrival airport: Malpensa International Airport (MXP)
- Flight distance: 3 833 km (~4h47)
- Applicable compensation: 600 €
Too few travellers claim what they're owed (less than 15% on average). Don't let this money go unclaimed: the process, despite its complexity, is an absolute right for every passenger.
How to know if the flight Alitalia Jeddah - Milano is eligible?
Whether your Alitalia flight Jeddah-Milano was delayed or boarding was denied, the 600€ compensation may apply for each case.
Connecting passengers are also protected. If your first Alitalia segment Jeddah-Milano causes a knock-on delay, the indemnity is calculated on the overall arrival delay.

-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Jeddah airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Alitalia (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Jeddah, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Alitalia compensation
The EU Court of Justice has clearly stated: internal industrial action do not constitute extraordinary circumstances for airlines. This ruling is binding across the entire EU.
Even if the 600€ are not owed due to an external strike at Jeddah, care (food/accommodation) remains the responsibility of Alitalia. Keep this in mind.
What are your rights at Jeddah airport in case of prolonged wait?

How long does it take to get the 600 € compensation?
