Flight compensation Iberia Airlines:
Barcelona — Milano

How to be compensated by Iberia Airlines on the Barcelona (BCN) - Milano (MXP) line

From Barcelona International Airport airport, your departure with Iberia Airlines to Milano didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 721 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.

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 flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.

How to know if the flight Iberia Airlines Barcelona - Milano is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Malpensa International Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Iberia Airlines owes you 250 €.

Keeping your travel documents for the Iberia Airlines BCN-MXP flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Barcelona.

What are the conditions for Iberia Airlines to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Iberia Airlines compensation

If your Iberia Airlines flight from Barcelona International Airport was cancelled due to an internal union strike, you are eligible for legal repair.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Barcelona International Airport airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 250 € will not be due.

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

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Barcelona International Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.
