Flight compensation Alitalia:
Reggio Calabria — Rome

How to claim your money from Alitalia on Reggio Calabria (REG) → Rome (FCO)

No one enjoys being stranded in the terminal. If Alitalia didn't honour its scheduled times for your Reggio Calabria - Rome flight, the law is on your side.

Regulation 261/2004 is unambiguous: for 506 km, Alitalia is held to a payout requirement if boarding is denied.

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.

Note: only extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather, airspace closures, security threats) relieve Alitalia from payment. Otherwise, the payout is owed.

How to know if the flight Alitalia Reggio Calabria - Rome is eligible?

The indemnity for REG-FCO is a payout for time lost, not merely a commercial gesture. For this short-haul flight, the 3-hour threshold remains the key criterion.

In summary: three situations trigger the 250€ payment on Alitalia Reggio Calabria-Rome: late arrival over 180 minutes, last-minute cancellation, or involuntary denied boarding. Determine your situation right now.

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 Reggio Calabria airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Alitalia (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Alitalia compensation

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€.

Important nuance: if the cancellation is directly attributable to ground services, Alitalia is exempted from the obligation to pay the 250€ compensation, while maintaining its duty of assistance.
