Why are you entitled to 400 €?

How to know if the flight Norwegian Air Shuttle Gothenborg - Malaga is eligible?

Check your actual arrival time at Malaga. If Norwegian Air Shuttle made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Malaga, your claim is legitimate.

  • Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Norwegian Air Shuttle (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Gothenborg, 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 a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Malaga, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.

The nuance is subtle, but essential. By calling on specialized lawyers, they will check the actual flight causative factors in the aeronautical databases reported by the captain on the day of your Gothenborg - Malaga flight.

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

If Gothenburg-Landvetter Airport airport becomes your temporary residence because of Norwegian Air Shuttle, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.
