Claim and compensation for flight Corsairfly Paris - Cayenne

If your trip departing from Paris-Orly Airport and arriving at Cayenne-Rochambeau Airport operated by Corsairfly was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

By taking off from Paris-Orly Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 7 086 km determines your legal compensation level.

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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: Paris-Orly Airport (ORY)
  • Arrival airport: Cayenne-Rochambeau Airport (CAY)
  • Flight distance: 7 086 km (~8h51)
  • Applicable compensation: 600 €

Did you know? Even if Corsairfly is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Paris-Orly Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Corsairfly Paris - Cayenne is eligible?

Check your actual arrival time at Cayenne. If Corsairfly made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Cayenne-Rochambeau Airport, your claim is legitimate.

Also note that the distance of 7 086 km perfectly justifies the compensation bracket of 600 €. This amount is net and the airline cannot derogate from it in its own terms and conditions.

What are the conditions for Corsairfly to compensate you?

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

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

The impact of a strike on your Corsairfly compensation

A work stoppage of Corsairfly crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 600 €.

Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Corsairfly is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 600 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.

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

If Paris-Orly Airport airport becomes your temporary residence because of Corsairfly, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.

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