Flight compensation China Eastern Airlines:
Amsterdam — Rome

Refund and compensation China Eastern Airlines: route Amsterdam to Rome

The AMS - FCO route operated by China Eastern Airlines experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.

Given the route between Amsterdam and Rome (1 297 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by China Eastern Airlines.

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.

Did you know? Even if China Eastern Airlines is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight China Eastern Airlines Amsterdam - Rome is eligible?

Check your actual arrival time at Rome. If China Eastern Airlines made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Leonardo Da Vinci (Fiumicino) International Airport, your claim is legitimate.

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

What are the conditions for China Eastern Airlines to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your China Eastern Airlines compensation

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

In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.

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

Don't buy your food without first asking China Eastern Airlines for coupons. If you do, keep your receipts carefully.

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

Steps: how to get your 250 € from China Eastern Airlines?

It is strongly recommended to keep your China Eastern Airlines boarding pass and any communication relating to the delay suffered at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol airport. These documents will be vital for your case.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

On the AMS-FCO line, delays can vary according to the reactivity of China Eastern Airlines's legal department.

If your file is particularly solid regarding the incident occurred on the Amsterdam - Rome 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?

The first refusal from China Eastern Airlines should not discourage you. Very often, passenger services invoke 'weather' by default to test the traveler's determination.

For your 250 €, don't compromise with China Eastern Airlines without the opinion of a professional who knows the real value of your prejudice at Amsterdam.
