Riga — Venice

Get your Alitalia flight compensation for the route Riga - Venice

From Riga International Airport airport, your departure with Alitalia to Venice didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 1 501 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

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.

Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Venice.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Riga airport.

How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?
