Flight compensation Brussels Airlines:
Brussels — Mulhouse

Procedure: Brussels Airlines flight compensation from Brussels to Mulhouse

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Brussels Airlines did not respect its scheduled times for your Brussels - Mulhouse flight, the law is on your side.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 429 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Brussels Airlines to pay you financial compensation.

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 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 Brussels Airlines Brussels - Mulhouse is eligible?

The compensation for flight BRU-BSL is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Brussels Airlines sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Brussels Airport, the 250 € compensation is automatic.

What are the conditions for Brussels Airlines to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Brussels Airlines compensation

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Brussels - Mulhouse trip is due to an internal strike within Brussels Airlines, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Brussels Airlines is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 250 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.

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

The right to assistance is a crucial provision of the European text. Even before speaking of your 250 €, if the delay stretches at Brussels Airport airport, Brussels Airlines is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.

Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Brussels Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by Brussels Airlines.
