How to get compensated from Norwegian Air Shuttle on Copenhagen (CPH) - London (LGW)
Nobody likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Norwegian Air Shuttle failed to meet its timetable for your Copenhagen → London flight, EU law backs you up.
Fortunately, for this route of 984 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 requires Norwegian Air Shuttle 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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (CPH)
- Arrival airport: London Gatwick Airport (LGW)
- Flight distance: 984 km (~1h14)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
Too few travellers claim what they're owed (less than 15% on average). Don't let this money go unclaimed: the process, despite its complexity, is an absolute right for every passenger.
How to know if the flight Norwegian Air Shuttle Copenhagen - London is eligible?
Whether your Norwegian Air Shuttle flight Copenhagen-London was delayed or boarding was denied, the 250€ compensation may apply for each case.
An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Copenhagen Kastrup Airport without an immediate alternative entitles you to the same 250€ payout.
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 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
The issue of strikes is a frequent sticking point in compensation cases. It is vital to distinguish between a strike by Norwegian Air Shuttle's own staff (pilots, cabin crew) and an third-party strike.
The difference is fine but crucial. By engaging specialist lawyers, they will check in aeronautical databases the real cause of the delay logged on the day of your Copenhagen → London flight.
What are your rights at Copenhagen airport in case of prolonged wait?
Picture the situation: stranded for hours at Copenhagen Kastrup Airport, with no clear information about when you'll fly. In this scenario, Norwegian Air Shuttle has no right to abandon you. The law forbids it.
Don't hesitate to request this assistance at {the airline's|Norwegian Air Shuttle's} counter. If refused and you advance costs for accommodation at Copenhagen Kastrup Airport, save your invoices carefully for reimbursement.
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?
The reality is stark: on average, a passenger acting alone takes 4 to 8 months to obtain their 250€ from Norwegian Air Shuttle. Via a specialist, the time falls to 1 to 2 months.
The advantage of delegating your claim to a LegalTech firm is that they can speed up the process through industrialised follow-up and the prospect of litigation.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
The first refusal from Norwegian Air Shuttle should not discourage you. Very often, claims teams cite "force majeure" automatically to test the traveller's determination.
For your 250€, don't settle with Norwegian Air Shuttle without the advice of a professional who knows the full scope of your claim for Copenhagen→London.
