Were you affected by problems on your flight from Faro to Copenhagen with Norwegian Air Shuttle? Hours of waiting, an unexpected cancellation or overbooking can ruin your plans.

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

  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Faro airport.

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Faro, 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

Watch out for the classic trap: Norwegian Air Shuttle may mention a "strike" without specifying whether it was an internal or external strike. This detail is decisive for your {case|right to 400€}.

However, if air traffic controllers at Faro Airport or security staff go on strike, this is indeed an force majeure situation. In this case, the 400€ cannot be claimed.

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

During that interminable wait in the hall at Faro Airport, remember Norwegian Air Shuttle has a duty to look after you. This includes food, but also the option to send emails at no cost.

Lots of travellers are unaware that transfers between the accommodation and the terminal at Faro Airport is also included in the legal package owed by Norwegian Air Shuttle.
