Legal right to compensation: Norwegian Air Shuttle flight between Arrecife and London
The ACE - LGW route operated by Norwegian Air Shuttle experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.
European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 2 710 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.
Why are you entitled to 400 €?
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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Lanzarote Airport (ACE)
- Arrival airport: London Gatwick Airport (LGW)
- Flight distance: 2 710 km (~3h23)
- Applicable compensation: 400 €
This is not a commercial gesture from Norwegian Air Shuttle, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.
How to know if the flight Norwegian Air Shuttle Arrecife - London is eligible?
Check your actual arrival time at London. If Norwegian Air Shuttle made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at London Gatwick Airport, your claim is legitimate.

What are the conditions for Norwegian Air Shuttle to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at London.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Arrecife airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Norwegian Air Shuttle (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Arrecife, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?

If your file is particularly solid regarding the incident occurred on the Arrecife - London section, some refund organizations even buy your debt. You then receive your compensation in less than 48 hours!
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
The use of complex legal jargon by Norwegian Air Shuttle is often a maneuver to encourage the traveler to abandon their 400 €.
DGAC or its European equivalents can be slow. A private court proceeding against Norwegian Air Shuttle is often more striking.
