Flight compensation Alitalia:
Stockholm — Paris

Procedure: Alitalia flight compensation from Stockholm to Paris

From Stockholm-Arlanda Airport airport, your departure with Alitalia to Paris didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 1 539 km of flight, the company Alitalia is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.

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.

This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.

How to know if the flight Alitalia Stockholm - Paris is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Charles de Gaulle International Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Alitalia owes you 400 €.

Keeping your travel documents for the Alitalia ARN-CDG flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Stockholm.

What are the conditions for Alitalia to compensate you?

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

What are your rights at Stockholm airport in case of prolonged wait?

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Stockholm-Arlanda Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
