Claim and compensation for flight Maastricht Airlines Pajala - Tallinn-ulemiste International

If your trip departing from Pajala Airport and arriving at Tallinn Airport operated by Maastricht Airlines was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

By taking off from Pajala Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 875 km determines your legal compensation level.

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 Maastricht Airlines is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Pajala Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Maastricht Airlines Pajala - Tallinn-ulemiste International is eligible?

To determine if your trip between Pajala and Tallinn-ulemiste International entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.
