Refund and compensation Estonian Air: route Tallinn-ulemiste International to Brussels

The TLL - BRU route operated by Estonian Air experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.

Given the route between Tallinn-ulemiste International and Brussels (1 592 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by Estonian Air.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

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.

How to know if the flight Estonian Air Tallinn-ulemiste International - Brussels is eligible?

Check your actual arrival time at Brussels. If Estonian Air made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Brussels Airport, your claim is legitimate.

The impact of a strike on your Estonian Air compensation

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Brussels 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 Tallinn-ulemiste International airport in case of prolonged wait?

If Tallinn Airport airport becomes your temporary residence because of Estonian Air, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.

Don't be surprised if you don't hear back within fifteen days of your request. The average time observed for a company like Estonian Air to validate a complex file often varies between four and twelve weeks.
