How to be compensated by Croatia Airlines on the Dubrovnik (DBV) - Munich (MUC) line

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Croatia Airlines did not respect its scheduled times for your Dubrovnik - Munich flight, the law is on your side.

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 818 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.

Why are you entitled to 250 €?

Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.
