Flight compensation Germanwings:
Berlin — Bastia

Claim and compensation for flight Germanwings Berlin - Bastia

If your trip departing from Berlin-Tegel International Airport and arriving at Bastia-Poretta Airport operated by Germanwings was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

By taking off from Berlin-Tegel International Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 1 148 km determines your legal compensation level.

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

How to know if the flight Germanwings Berlin - Bastia is eligible?

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

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

What are the conditions for Germanwings to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Germanwings compensation

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Bastia-Poretta 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.

In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.

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

Don't buy your food without first asking Germanwings for coupons. If you do, keep your receipts carefully.

Your forced stay at Berlin shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your TXL-BIA trip.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Germanwings?

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

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

The advantage of delegating your claim to a major LegalTech player is that they can speed up this process thanks to automated formal notice systems and the constant threat of legal proceedings.

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

An unfounded refusal from Germanwings is a practice that experts know perfectly how to bypass by citing the right articles of Regulation 261.

For your 250 €, don't compromise with Germanwings without the opinion of a professional who knows the real value of your prejudice at Berlin.
