Refund and compensation Germania: route Fuerteventura to Bremen

The FUE - BRE route operated by Germania experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.

Given the route between Fuerteventura and Bremen (3 304 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by Germania.

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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: Fuerteventura Airport (FUE)
  • Arrival airport: Bremen Airport (BRE)
  • Flight distance: 3 304 km (~4h08)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €

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

How to know if the flight Germania Fuerteventura - Bremen is eligible?

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

In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Fuerteventura, the regulation applies in the same way.

What are the conditions for Germania to compensate you?

  • Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Bremen.
  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Fuerteventura airport.
  • Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Germania (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Fuerteventura, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

The impact of a strike on your Germania compensation

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Fuerteventura - Bremen trip is due to an internal strike within Germania, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

A strike by weather services at Fuerteventura Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Germania has no control.

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

During these long hours of waiting in the Fuerteventura Airport terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.

Your forced stay at Fuerteventura shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your FUE-BRE trip.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Germania?

For your Fuerteventura - Bremen trip, every minute counts. Note the reasons given by Germania staff at the Fuerteventura Airport counter during the incident.

This is where lawyers and specialized services come in. By going through an expert partner, you check your flight instantly and delegate the entire procedure to recover your 400 € without stress.

How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?

Some passengers wait more than 6 months for a response from Germania. An expert can reduce this time by half.

A collective action on the Germania flight from Fuerteventura can also be a way to get your funds faster.

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

It is not uncommon for a claim for 400 € to be automatically rejected by the company's algorithms under a fallacious generic pretext.

If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
