Iran Air passengers Gothenborg-Tehran: what to do to file a claim

The flight GOT → IKA by Iran Air suffered an incident? Delay, cancellation or overbooking, you may be entitled to a legal payout.

With 3 781 km between Gothenburg-Landvetter Airport and Imam Khomeini International Airport, CE 261 guarantees a lump-sum compensation of 600€ per person.

Why are you entitled to 600 €?

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.

Good to know? Even if Iran Air is a airline based outside the EU, if the flight takes off from Gothenburg-Landvetter Airport, CE 261 applies in full.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?

Iran Air's use of complex legal jargon is often a tactic to push travellers to abandon their 600€. For the larger long-haul amounts, refusals are almost systematic at first.
