Flight compensation Meridiana:
Torino — Naples

Legal right to compensation: Meridiana flight between Torino and Naples

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

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 722 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.

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 Torino / Caselle International Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

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

Check your actual arrival time at Naples. If Meridiana made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Naples, your claim is legitimate.

Also note that the distance of 722 km perfectly justifies the compensation bracket of 250 €. This amount is net and the airline cannot derogate from it in its own terms and conditions.

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 Torino 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 €.

Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Meridiana is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 250 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.

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

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

In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Torino / Caselle International Airport airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.
