Claim your compensation for China Southern Airlines Amsterdam - Beijing

Denied boarding on China Southern Airlines Amsterdam - Beijing entitles you to up to 600€. Find out if you're eligible.

EU law strictly protects passenger rights. For 7 827 km, the legal compensation is owed if {the airline is at fault|China Southern Airlines bears responsibility}. The maximum amount applies to this distance.

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.

Since the Sturgeon ruling of 2009, delays over 3 hours are treated the same as cancellations regarding payout entitlement. This greatly broadened the scope of the regulation.

How to know if the flight China Southern Airlines Amsterdam - Beijing is eligible?

To check if your journey between Amsterdam and Beijing qualifies for compensation, the main criterion is the delay at destination ({not the departure delay|measured at Beijing Capital International Airport}). It must exceed 3 hours.

Even if China Southern Airlines offers a replacement flight, the 600€ indemnity remains owed if the final delay at Beijing is over the 180-minute threshold.

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

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Beijing.
• 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 Southern Airlines (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
