Claim and compensation for flight Eastern Airways Lorient - Lyon

The LRT - LYS route operated by Eastern Airways experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 687 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.

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 Eastern Airways is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Lorient South Brittany (Bretagne Sud) Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Eastern Airways Lorient - Lyon is eligible?

To determine if your trip between Lorient and Lyon entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.

Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 250 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.

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