Claim and compensation for flight Croatia Airlines Zagreb - Split

Your claim for compensation for the Croatia Airlines flight from Zagreb to Split deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.

By taking off from Zagreb Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 246 km determines your legal compensation level.

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.

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

How to know if the flight Croatia Airlines Zagreb - Split is eligible?

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

Also note that the distance of 246 km perfectly justifies the compensation bracket of 250 €. This amount is net and the airline cannot derogate from it in its own terms and conditions.

• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
