Get your Czech Airlines flight compensation for the route Berlin - Prague

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Czech Airlines did not respect its scheduled times for your Berlin - Prague 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 282 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.

This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.

How to know if the flight Czech Airlines Berlin - Prague is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Ruzyn? International Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Czech Airlines owes you 250 €.

Keeping your travel documents for the Czech Airlines TXL-PRG flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Berlin.

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

The impact of a strike on your Czech Airlines compensation

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Ruzyn? International Airport, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.

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