Why are you entitled to 250 €?

  • Departure airport: Charles de Gaulle International Airport (CDG)
  • Arrival airport: Asturias Airport (OVD)
  • Flight distance: 895 km (~1h07)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

Distinguish between fare reimbursement and statutory indemnity! Even if Iberia Airlines proposes a voucher for your Paris - Aviles flight, you can still claim the cash sum of 250€ guaranteed by the regulation.

An class change doesn't change your right to 250€ if the initial disruption is established under Regulation 261. The amount stays fixed at this short-haul tier.

  • Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Aviles.

  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Paris airport.
  • Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Iberia Airlines (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
