Process: compensation for Norwegian Air Shuttle flight from Copenhagen to Berlin

Your Norwegian Air Shuttle flight from Copenhagen to Berlin was delayed, cancelled or overbooked? Don't stay silent: EU regulation protects you.

Regulation 261/2004 is clear: for 364 km, Norwegian Air Shuttle is bound by a compensation obligation if the flight is cancelled.

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: Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (CPH)
  • Arrival airport: Berlin (SXF)
  • Flight distance: 364 km (~0h27)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

Too few passengers exercise their rights (only one in seven on average). Don't allow this compensation slip away: the procedure, although bureaucratic, is guaranteed for all travellers.

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

The 3-hour threshold is measured at the moment the aircraft doors are unlocked at Berlin. If the delay is confirmed and the disruption is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Norwegian Air Shuttle owes you 250€.

An sudden suppression or a rerouted flight from Copenhagen Kastrup Airport without a satisfactory solution qualifies for the same 250€ indemnity.

What are the conditions for Norwegian Air Shuttle to compensate you?

  • Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Berlin.
  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Copenhagen 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 Copenhagen, 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

When industrial action disrupts your journey to Berlin, {the airline|Norwegian Air Shuttle} will often try to refuse the claim. However, a strike by its employees no longer constitutes, according to case law, an exempting circumstance.

The distinction is subtle but essential. By consulting aviation experts, they will verify in official records the actual cause of the delay recorded on the day of your Copenhagen - Berlin flight.

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

Here is what Norwegian Air Shuttle owes you during a prolonged wait at Copenhagen Kastrup Airport: drinks and snacks proportionate to the delay, the ability to call or email, and accommodation if an overnight stay is needed.

If you already paid for meals at Copenhagen Kastrup Airport due to Norwegian Air Shuttle's fault, collect every receipt. You are entitled to refund of every euro spent on top of the 250€ indemnity.

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

The direct approach with Norwegian Air Shuttle to recover 250€ often fails without a solid legal and technical file. Even on a short-haul, the procedure can be tricky.

To maximise your chances of success, use a recovery service. These experts master the regulations and won't back down from Norwegian Air Shuttle's legal department.

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