The CDG - IST route operated by Maldivian Air Taxi experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

How to know if the flight Maldivian Air Taxi Paris - Istanbul is eligible?
Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Maldivian Air Taxi offers you a voucher for your Paris - Istanbul flight, you can still claim the 400 euros cash provided by law.
Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 400 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.

The impact of a strike on your Maldivian Air Taxi compensation
A work stoppage of Maldivian Air Taxi crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 400 €.
A strike by weather services at Charles de Gaulle International Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Maldivian Air Taxi has no control.
What are your rights at Paris airport in case of prolonged wait?
During these long hours of waiting in the Charles de Gaulle International Airport terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.
Your forced stay at Paris shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your CDG-IST trip.
