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: Nice (NCE)
  • Flight distance: 1 385 km (~1h44)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

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

To determine if your flight between Copenhagen and Nice is eligible for a payout, the key criterion is the arrival delay ({not the departure delay|measured at Nice}). It must be over 3 hours.

Remember that the distance of 1 385 km perfectly matches the 250€ compensation tier. This amount is net and {the airline|Norwegian Air Shuttle} cannot deviate from it through 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 Nice.
  • 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

Be vigilant: Norwegian Air Shuttle might cite a disruption without clarifying whether it was its own staff or airport personnel. This distinction changes everything for your {case|right to 250€}.

However, if ground handlers at Copenhagen Kastrup Airport or screening personnel take action, this constitutes an extraordinary circumstance. In this scenario, the 250€ are not owed.

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

If Copenhagen Kastrup Airport becomes your temporary home because of Norwegian Air Shuttle, know that your basic needs must be met by the airline. Assistance is due from 2 hours for flights of this distance.

Even in extraordinary circumstances, the right to assistance at Copenhagen remains valid. The hotel is owed if Norwegian Air Shuttle pushes your flight by a day.

For your Copenhagen - Nice flight, every detail matters. Note down the explanations provided by Norwegian Air Shuttle staff at Copenhagen Kastrup Airport during the disruption.

By entrusting your CPH-NCE case to our experts, you benefit from the "no result, no charge" principle (you only pay if you win).

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

Don't be surprised if you get no reply within two weeks. The average processing time for a carrier like Norwegian Air Shuttle to finalise a compensation case typically ranges from 1 to 3 months.

Modern platforms reduce the average timeline to a few weeks for over 90% of cases {like yours|such as Norwegian Air Shuttle Copenhagen→Nice}.

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