Legal right to compensation: Alitalia flight between Osaka and Rome
The KIX - FCO route operated by Alitalia experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.
European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 9 741 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.
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: Kansai International Airport (KIX)
- Arrival airport: Leonardo Da Vinci (Fiumicino) International Airport (FCO)
- Flight distance: 9 741 km (~12h11)
- Applicable compensation: 600 €
The case law of the CJEU has strengthened these rights over the years, transforming Regulation 261/2004 into an effective shield against abuses by carriers like Alitalia.
How to know if the flight Alitalia Osaka - Rome is eligible?
To determine if your trip between Osaka and Rome entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.
In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Osaka, the regulation applies in the same way.
What are the conditions for Alitalia to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Rome.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Osaka airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Alitalia (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Osaka, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Alitalia compensation
When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Leonardo Da Vinci (Fiumicino) International 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.
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 Osaka airport in case of prolonged wait?
During these long hours of waiting in the Kansai International Airport terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.
In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Kansai International Airport airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.
