Procedure: Corse-Mediterranee flight compensation from Ajaccio to Marseille
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Ajaccio and Marseille with Corse-Mediterranee? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 338 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.
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: Ajaccio (AJA)
- Arrival airport: Marseille Provence Airport (MRS)
- Flight distance: 338 km (~0h25)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.
How to know if the flight Corse-Mediterranee Ajaccio - Marseille is eligible?
The compensation for flight AJA-MRS is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.
Keeping your travel documents for the Corse-Mediterranee AJA-MRS flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Ajaccio.
What are the conditions for Corse-Mediterranee to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Marseille.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Ajaccio airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Corse-Mediterranee (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Ajaccio, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Corse-Mediterranee compensation
A work stoppage of Corse-Mediterranee crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 250 €.
A strike by weather services at Ajaccio or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Corse-Mediterranee has no control.
What are your rights at Ajaccio airport in case of prolonged wait?
In addition to financial compensation, the European regulation guarantees what is called a 'right to care.' If your flight is delayed departing from Ajaccio, Corse-Mediterranee must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.
If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Ajaccio and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Corse-Mediterranee?
The amicable route with Corse-Mediterranee to recover 250 € often fails without a technical and legal file.
Don't fill out complex forms on the Corse-Mediterranee website. Go through a passenger defense portal to secure your 250 € indemnity.
How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
Patience is often the watchword. Airlines receive thousands of requests weekly and processing your file for the flight from Ajaccio to Marseille Provence Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.
A collective action on the Corse-Mediterranee flight from Ajaccio can also be a way to get your funds faster.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
Don't take Corse-Mediterranee's email for granted claiming that the airport was blocked by snow without checking official reports.
Experts in aviation law have a colossal history of Corse-Mediterranee convictions, which is a decisive advantage.
