How to be compensated by Kuwait Airways on the Rome (FCO) - Paris (CDG) line
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Rome and Paris with Kuwait Airways? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 1 101 km of flight, the company Kuwait Airways is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.
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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Leonardo Da Vinci (Fiumicino) International Airport (FCO)
- Arrival airport: Charles de Gaulle International Airport (CDG)
- Flight distance: 1 101 km (~1h23)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.
How to know if the flight Kuwait Airways Rome - Paris is eligible?
The compensation for flight FCO-CDG is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.
An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Leonardo Da Vinci (Fiumicino) International Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 250 €.
What are the conditions for Kuwait Airways to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Paris.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Rome airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Kuwait Airways (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Rome, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Kuwait Airways compensation
When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Charles de Gaulle International Airport, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.
The nuance is subtle, but essential. By calling on specialized lawyers, they will check the actual flight causative factors in the aeronautical databases reported by the captain on the day of your Rome - Paris flight.
What are your rights at Rome airport in case of prolonged wait?
Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Kuwait Airways must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Rome.
If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Leonardo Da Vinci (Fiumicino) International Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Kuwait Airways?
The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Charles de Gaulle International Airport airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.
Don't fill out complex forms on the Kuwait Airways website. Go through a passenger defense portal to secure your 250 € indemnity.
How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
On the FCO-CDG line, delays can vary according to the reactivity of Kuwait Airways's legal department.
Recovering 250 € has never been faster thanks to the interconnection between defense platforms and Kuwait Airways systems.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
The use of complex legal jargon by Kuwait Airways is often a maneuver to encourage the traveler to abandon their 250 €.
DGAC or its European equivalents can be slow. A private court proceeding against Kuwait Airways is often more striking.
