Steps: compensation for Niki flight from Graz to Tenerife
Your Niki flight from Graz to Tenerife was delayed, cancelled or overbooked? Don't stay silent: EU regulation protects you.
Whether you paid €50 or €500, the compensation remains the same: 400€ per passenger. {The distance|The 3 483 km} matters, not the ticket price. This medium-haul journey qualifies for a substantial payout.
