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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Pisa / San Giusto - Galileo Galilei International Airport (PSA)
- Arrival airport: Leonardo Da Vinci (Fiumicino) International Airport (FCO)

This key legislation of European aviation rights covers nearly a billion passengers every year. Yet, over 85% don't bother because they don't know their rights.
How to know if the flight Alitalia Pisa - Rome is eligible?
Your entitlement depends on verifiable facts. Official flight records will confirm the exact time of door opening at Leonardo Da Vinci (Fiumicino) International Airport.
Be cautious: Alitalia may attempt to ask you to give up your rights. Don't sign anything without consulting an expert.
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 Pisa airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Alitalia (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Pisa, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Alitalia compensation
Be wary by Alitalia's evasive wording: a unannounced or planned strike remains the managerial responsibility of the airline. On this short-haul, the internal/external strike distinction is the same.
Key distinction: if the delay is caused by ground services, Alitalia is released from paying the 250€ indemnity, but not its care obligation.
What are your rights at Pisa airport in case of prolonged wait?
If Pisa / San Giusto - Galileo Galilei International Airport becomes your temporary home because of Alitalia, know that your basic needs must be met by the airline. Assistance is due from 2 hours for flights of this distance.
Your forced stay at Pisa should not cost you a single extra cent beyond your original booking for PSA→FCO. Even on a short route, hotel accommodation is owed for overnight delays.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Alitalia?
For your Pisa - Rome flight, every detail matters. Note down the explanations provided by Alitalia staff at Pisa / San Giusto - Galileo Galilei International Airport during the disruption.
The key advantage: they absorb 100% of the risk and only charge when the 250€ case is won.
How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
Don't give up faced with Alitalia's silence. It's a deliberate tactic to discourage claimants. Data confirms that over 80% of passengers give up along the way.
By choosing a "No Win, No Fee" service, you take no risk. If the 250€ aren't recovered, you owe nothing. As transparent as that.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
Don't take at face value Alitalia's email claiming that Pisa's airport was blocked by snow without consulting certified METAR data.
As a last resort, it is court action that often unlocks payment. Alitalia will almost always choose to pay the 250€ rather than face lawyer fees for a case doomed to fail in court.
