Flight compensation Alitalia:
Torino — Reggio Calabria

Claim and compensation for flight Alitalia Torino - Reggio Calabria

Your claim for compensation for the Alitalia flight from Torino to Reggio Calabria deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 1 034 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.

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 not a commercial gesture from Alitalia, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.

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

To determine if your trip between Torino and Reggio Calabria entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.

In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Torino, the regulation applies in the same way.

What are the conditions for Alitalia to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Alitalia compensation

The question of strikes is a frequent point of friction during a claim. It is vital to distinguish between a strike by Alitalia staff (pilots, flight attendants) and an external strike.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Torino / Caselle International Airport airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 250 € will not be due.

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

During these long hours of waiting in the Torino / Caselle International Airport terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.

In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Torino / Caselle International Airport airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Alitalia?

It is strongly recommended to keep your Alitalia boarding pass and any communication relating to the delay suffered at Torino / Caselle International Airport airport. These documents will be vital for your case.

If your file is particularly solid regarding the incident occurred on the Torino - Reggio Calabria section, some refund organizations even buy your debt. You then receive your compensation in less than 48 hours!

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

An unfounded refusal from Alitalia is a practice that experts know perfectly how to bypass by citing the right articles of Regulation 261.

DGAC or its European equivalents can be slow. A private court proceeding against Alitalia is often more striking.
