How to get compensated from Golden Air on Sundsvall (SDL) - Stockholm (BMA)

Flight cancelled on your Golden Air flight Sundsvall ✈ Stockholm? This happens to thousands every month. Fortunately: compensation is available.

Fortunately, for this route of 354 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 requires Golden Air to pay you a fixed indemnity. On a short-haul flight like this, a specific compensation tier applies.

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.

Unlike what {many think|Golden Air might suggest}, this payout doesn't depend on the fare. A €30 ticket gives the same rights as an €800 booking.
