Flight compensation Alitalia:
Palma de Mallorca — Valencia

Full breakdown: Alitalia claim Palma de Mallorca → Valencia

If your flight from Palma De Mallorca Airport to Valencia Airport flown by Alitalia was impacted, legal remedies exist when dealing with the airline.

Given the distance between Palma de Mallorca and Valencia (276 km), CE 261 mandates a statutory payout in case of fault by Alitalia. Short-haul routes are covered from the first tier.

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.

This is by no means a commercial courtesy from Alitalia, but a binding duty that applies to all flights subject to the scope of the directive.

Be sure to retain your flight records for the Alitalia PMI→VLC flight. They constitute the essential proof of your entitlement.

In the case of a flight suppression, if you were informed fewer than two weeks before your departure from Palma de Mallorca, the CE 261 applies equally.

What are the conditions for Alitalia to compensate you?

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

A work stoppage by Alitalia's crews is considered inherent to the ordinary activity of the carrier and is no longer a valid justification to refuse the 250€.
