Refund and compensation Norwegian Air Shuttle: route Berlin to Bergen

If your trip departing from Berlin and arriving at Bergen Airport, Flesland operated by Norwegian Air Shuttle was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

Given the route between Berlin and Bergen (1 016 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by Norwegian Air Shuttle.

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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: Berlin (SXF)
  • Arrival airport: Bergen Airport, Flesland (BGO)
  • Flight distance: 1 016 km (~1h16)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

Did you know? Even if Norwegian Air Shuttle is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Berlin, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Norwegian Air Shuttle Berlin - Bergen is eligible?

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Norwegian Air Shuttle offers you a voucher for your Berlin - Bergen flight, you can still claim the 250 euros cash provided by law.

Also note that the distance of 1 016 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 Norwegian Air Shuttle to compensate you?

  • Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Bergen.
  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Berlin 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 Berlin, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

The impact of a strike on your Norwegian Air Shuttle compensation

If your Norwegian Air Shuttle flight from Berlin was cancelled due to an internal union strike, you are eligible for legal repair.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Berlin airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 250 € will not be due.

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

During these long hours of waiting in the Berlin terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.

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

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Norwegian Air Shuttle?

For your Berlin - Bergen trip, every minute counts. Note the reasons given by Norwegian Air Shuttle staff at the Berlin counter during the incident.

This is where lawyers and specialized services come in. By going through an expert partner, you check your flight instantly and delegate the entire procedure to recover your 250 € without stress.

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

On the SXF-BGO line, delays can vary according to the reactivity of Norwegian Air Shuttle's legal department.

The advantage of delegating your claim to a major LegalTech player is that they can speed up this process thanks to automated formal notice systems and the constant threat of legal proceedings.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?

The first refusal from Norwegian Air Shuttle should not discourage you. Very often, passenger services invoke 'weather' by default to test the traveler's determination.

DGAC or its European equivalents can be slow. A private court proceeding against Norwegian Air Shuttle is often more striking.
