Flight compensation Meridiana:
Berlin — Olbia

Legal right to compensation: Meridiana flight between Berlin and Olbia

Your claim for compensation for the Meridiana flight from Berlin to Olbia deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.

By taking off from Berlin-Tegel International Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 1 328 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 Meridiana is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Berlin-Tegel International Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Meridiana Berlin - Olbia is eligible?

Check your actual arrival time at Olbia. If Meridiana made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Olbia / Costa Smeralda Airport, your claim is legitimate.

In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Berlin, the regulation applies in the same way.

What are the conditions for Meridiana to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Olbia.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Berlin airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Meridiana (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Meridiana compensation

Don't be fooled by Meridiana's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.

A strike by weather services at Berlin-Tegel International Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Meridiana has no control.

What are your rights at Berlin airport in case of prolonged wait?

Don't buy your food without first asking Meridiana for coupons. If you do, keep your receipts carefully.

Your forced stay at Berlin shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your TXL-OLB trip.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Meridiana?

Starting a procedure against Meridiana for a flight from Berlin to Olbia can be complex if you decide to go it alone. Customer service often tends to invoke the weather to clear themselves.

If you don't have the time or the desire to engage in long email exchanges, delegating your claim to lawyers is the most effective solution to see your 250 € arrive in your bank account.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

Technology today allows real-time tracking of the progress of your request against Meridiana on your smartphone.

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

Experts in aviation law have a colossal history of Meridiana convictions, which is a decisive advantage.
