Fortunately, for this route of 537 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 requires Meridiana to pay you a fixed indemnity. On a short-haul flight like this, a specific compensation tier applies.
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.

- Arrival airport: Naples (NAP)
- Flight distance: 537 km (~0h40)

-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.

Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Venice airport.

The impact of a strike on your Meridiana compensation
A work stoppage by Meridiana's crews is considered inherent to the ordinary activity of the carrier and is no longer a valid justification to refuse the 250€.
Important nuance: if the cancellation is directly attributable to airport staff, Meridiana is exempted from the obligation to pay the 250€ compensation, while maintaining its duty of assistance.
What are your rights at Venice airport in case of prolonged wait?
What few know: the assistance obligation remains valid even {in extraordinary circumstances|when force majeure is invoked|when the 250€ indemnity is not owed}. Even if Meridiana is excused from compensation, assistance remains mandatory.

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