How to claim your money from Norwegian Air Shuttle on Nice (NCE) → London (LGW)
Major delay on your Norwegian Air Shuttle flight Nice ✈ London? This affects many passengers regularly. Good news: you have concrete rights.
The good news is, for this journey of 1 001 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 obliges Norwegian Air Shuttle to provide financial compensation. On a short-haul flight like this, a specific compensation tier applies.
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: Nice (NCE)
- Arrival airport: London Gatwick Airport (LGW)
- Flight distance: 1 001 km (~1h15)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
Too few passengers exercise their rights (only one in seven on average). Don't allow this compensation slip away: the procedure, although bureaucratic, is guaranteed for all travellers.
How to know if the flight Norwegian Air Shuttle Nice - London is eligible?
The compensation for NCE→LGW is redress for the inconvenience caused, not just a refund of airport taxes. For this short-haul flight, the 3-hour threshold remains the key criterion.
If you had a connection are equally covered. If your first Norwegian Air Shuttle segment Nice→London leads to a missed connection, the total delay at your final destination counts.

If you already paid for meals at Nice due to Norwegian Air Shuttle's fault, collect every receipt. You are entitled to refund of every euro spent on top of the 250€ indemnity.
