Flight compensation Meridiana:
Duesseldorf — Naples

Procedure: Meridiana flight compensation from Duesseldorf to Naples

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Meridiana did not respect its scheduled times for your Duesseldorf - Naples flight, the law is on your side.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 1 293 km of flight, the company Meridiana 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.

This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.

How to know if the flight Meridiana Duesseldorf - Naples is eligible?

For an Meridiana flight from Duesseldorf to Naples, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 250 €.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Meridiana sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Dusseldorf International Airport, the 250 € compensation is automatic.

What are the conditions for Meridiana to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Meridiana compensation

A work stoppage of Meridiana crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 250 €.

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

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

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Meridiana must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Duesseldorf.

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Dusseldorf International Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.
