Get your Iberia Airlines flight compensation for the route Paris - Tenerife

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Iberia Airlines did not respect its scheduled times for your Paris - Tenerife flight, the law is on your side.

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 2 761 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

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.

Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.
