Flight compensation Arkefly:
Punta Cana — Amsterdam

Get your Arkefly flight compensation for the route Punta Cana - Amsterdam

From Punta Cana International Airport airport, your departure with Arkefly to Amsterdam 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 7 245 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.

Why are you entitled to 600 €?

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.

How to know if the flight Arkefly Punta Cana - Amsterdam is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Arkefly owes you 600 €.

The impact of a strike on your Arkefly compensation
