Flight compensation Corse-Mediterranee:
Marseille — Bastia

Legal right to compensation: Corse-Mediterranee flight between Marseille and Bastia

Your claim for compensation for the Corse-Mediterranee flight from Marseille to Bastia deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.

Given the route between Marseille and Bastia (360 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by Corse-Mediterranee.

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.

The case law of the CJEU has strengthened these rights over the years, transforming Regulation 261/2004 into an effective shield against abuses by carriers like Corse-Mediterranee.

How to know if the flight Corse-Mediterranee Marseille - Bastia is eligible?

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Corse-Mediterranee offers you a voucher for your Marseille - Bastia flight, you can still claim the 250 euros cash provided by law.

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

What are the conditions for Corse-Mediterranee to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Corse-Mediterranee compensation

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

A strike by weather services at Marseille Provence Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Corse-Mediterranee has no control.

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