CE 261 payout: Binter Canarias flight Gran Canaria → Casablanca

No one enjoys being stranded in the terminal. If Binter Canarias didn't honour its scheduled times for your Gran Canaria - Casablanca flight, the law is on your side.

Regulation 261/2004 is unambiguous: for 959 km, Binter Canarias is held to a payout requirement if the delay exceeds 3 hours.

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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: Gran Canaria Airport (LPA)
  • Arrival airport: Mohammed V International Airport (CMN)
  • Flight distance: 959 km (~1h12)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

Unlike what {many think|Binter Canarias might suggest}, this payout doesn't depend on the fare. A €30 ticket gives the same rights as an €800 booking.

How to know if the flight Binter Canarias Gran Canaria - Casablanca is eligible?

The compensation for LPA→CMN is redress for the inconvenience caused, not just a refund of airport taxes. For this short-haul flight, the 3-hour threshold remains the key criterion.

What are the conditions for Binter Canarias to compensate you?

  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Gran Canaria airport.
  • Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Binter Canarias (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Gran Canaria, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

The impact of a strike on your Binter Canarias compensation

A work stoppage by Binter Canarias'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 air traffic control, Binter Canarias is exempted from the obligation to pay the 250€ compensation, while maintaining its duty of assistance.

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

Don't buy your food without first asking coupons from Binter Canarias. If you advance costs, save your invoices diligently.
