Legal right to compensation: Norwegian Air Shuttle flight between London and Palma de Mallorca
If your trip departing from London Gatwick Airport and arriving at Palma De Mallorca Airport operated by Norwegian Air Shuttle was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.
European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 1 309 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.
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: London Gatwick Airport (LGW)
- Arrival airport: Palma De Mallorca Airport (PMI)
- Flight distance: 1 309 km (~1h38)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
The case law of the CJEU has strengthened these rights over the years, transforming Regulation 261/2004 into an effective shield against abuses by carriers like Norwegian Air Shuttle.
How to know if the flight Norwegian Air Shuttle London - Palma de Mallorca is eligible?
Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Norwegian Air Shuttle offers you a voucher for your London - Palma de Mallorca flight, you can still claim the 250 euros cash provided by law.

The impact of a strike on your Norwegian Air Shuttle compensation
The question of strikes is a frequent point of friction during a claim. It is vital to distinguish between a strike by Norwegian Air Shuttle staff (pilots, flight attendants) and an external strike.
In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.
What are your rights at London airport in case of prolonged wait?
Don't buy your food without first asking Norwegian Air Shuttle for coupons. If you do, keep your receipts carefully.
Your forced stay at London shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your LGW-PMI trip.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Norwegian Air Shuttle?

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
On the LGW-PMI line, delays can vary according to the reactivity of Norwegian Air Shuttle's legal department.
