Refund and compensation Iberia Airlines: route La Coruna to Bilbao

The LCG - BIO route operated by Iberia Airlines experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 442 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.

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.

Did you know? Even if Iberia Airlines is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from La Coruna, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Iberia Airlines La Coruna - Bilbao is eligible?

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

Also note that the distance of 442 km perfectly justifies the compensation bracket of 250 €. This amount is net and the airline cannot derogate from it in its own terms and conditions.

What are the conditions for Iberia Airlines to compensate you?

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