Flight compensation Alitalia:
Naples — Milan

Refund and compensation Alitalia: route Naples to Milan

If your trip departing from Naples and arriving at Linate Airport operated by Alitalia was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

By taking off from Naples, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 650 km determines your legal compensation level.

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.

Did you know? Even if Alitalia is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Naples, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Alitalia Naples - Milan is eligible?

To determine if your trip between Naples and Milan entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.

Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 250 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.

What are the conditions for Alitalia to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Milan.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Naples airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Alitalia (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Alitalia compensation

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Linate Airport, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.

The nuance is subtle, but essential. By calling on specialized lawyers, they will check the actual flight causative factors in the aeronautical databases reported by the captain on the day of your Naples - Milan flight.

What are your rights at Naples airport in case of prolonged wait?

Don't buy your food without first asking Alitalia for coupons. If you do, keep your receipts carefully.

In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Naples airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Alitalia?

It is strongly recommended to keep your Alitalia boarding pass and any communication relating to the delay suffered at Naples airport. These documents will be vital for your case.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

Don't be surprised if you don't hear back within fifteen days of your request. The average time observed for a company like Alitalia to validate a complex file often varies between four and twelve weeks.

Recovering 250 € has never been faster thanks to the interconnection between defense platforms and Alitalia systems.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?

An unfounded refusal from Alitalia is a practice that experts know perfectly how to bypass by citing the right articles of Regulation 261.

A claim organization will know exactly how to counter the airline's arguments, having access to certified meteorological histories and traffic reports from Naples airport to prove their faults.
