Your entitlement: Eurolot flight from Wroclaw to Gdansk

If your flight from Copernicus Wroc?aw Airport to Gda?sk Lech Wa??sa Airport flown by Eurolot was impacted, you are not alone when dealing with the airline.

With 379 km between Copernicus Wroc?aw Airport and Gda?sk Lech Wa??sa Airport, CE 261 guarantees a lump-sum compensation of 250€ per person.

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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: Copernicus Wroc?aw Airport (WRO)
  • Arrival airport: Gda?sk Lech Wa??sa Airport (GDN)
  • Flight distance: 379 km (~0h28)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

This is not a goodwill gesture from Eurolot, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.

A work stoppage by Eurolot's crews is considered inherent to the ordinary activity of the carrier and is no longer a valid justification to refuse the 250€.

Important nuance: if the cancellation is directly attributable to airport staff, Eurolot is exempted from the obligation to pay the 250€ compensation, while maintaining its duty of assistance.

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