Obtain your Norwegian Air Shuttle flight payout for Helsinki → Palma de Mallorca

Regularly, many passengers suffer delays on Helsinki - Palma de Mallorca with Norwegian Air Shuttle. Most don't know they can claim financial compensation.

Your payout amount is independent of the fare. The distance alone of 2 774 km determines the payout under CE 261/2004.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

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: Helsinki Vantaa Airport (HEL)
  • Arrival airport: Palma De Mallorca Airport (PMI)
  • Flight distance: 2 774 km (~3h28)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €

This statutory compensation system was designed to deter airlines from altering schedules without valid grounds. Make sure you invoke this often-overlooked regulation.

How to know if the flight Norwegian Air Shuttle Helsinki - Palma de Mallorca is eligible?

In practice, to be eligible, your actual arrival at Palma De Mallorca Airport must have occurred at least 180 minutes behind the original timetable.

Compensation also covers denied boarding. If Norwegian Air Shuttle oversold the flight and you couldn't board at Helsinki Vantaa Airport, the 400€ payout is automatic.

What are the conditions for Norwegian Air Shuttle to compensate you?

  • Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Palma de Mallorca.
  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Helsinki 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 Helsinki, 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 wary by Norwegian Air Shuttle's evasive wording: a "spontaneous" or planned strike remains the managerial responsibility of the airline. Regardless of distance, the principle remains identical for strikes.

Key distinction: if the delay is caused by air traffic control, Norwegian Air Shuttle is released from paying the 400€ indemnity, but not its care obligation.

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

Once the delay reaches the regulatory threshold, i.e. 3 hours for flights between 1500 and 3500 km, Norwegian Air Shuttle must automatically provide the regulatory care to all passenger{s} waiting at Helsinki.

If you already paid for a taxi at Helsinki Vantaa Airport due to Norwegian Air Shuttle's fault, collect every receipt. You are entitled to refund of every euro spent on top of the 400€ indemnity.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Norwegian Air Shuttle?

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

It is quite common for Norwegian Air Shuttle's systems to refuse by default your initial claim under a generic pretext that is unfounded.

Specialist lawyers have a extensive catalogue of judgments against Norwegian Air Shuttle, which is a decisive advantage in negotiations.
