Complete guide: Norwegian Air Shuttle compensation Copenhagen - Paris

If your journey from Copenhagen Kastrup Airport to Paris-Orly Airport operated by Norwegian Air Shuttle was disrupted, legal remedies exist when dealing with the carrier.

Given the route between Copenhagen and Paris (1 037 km), the EU scale provides for automatic protection in case of a breach by Norwegian Air Shuttle. Short-haul routes are covered from the first tier.

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: Paris-Orly Airport (ORY)
  • Flight distance: 1 037 km (~1h18)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

This is by no means a commercial courtesy from Norwegian Air Shuttle, but a binding duty that applies to all flights subject to the scope of the directive.
