Norwegian Air Shuttle passengers Oakland-Stockholm: your guide to get compensated

If your journey from Metropolitan Oakland International Airport to Stockholm-Arlanda Airport operated by Norwegian Air Shuttle was disrupted, the law protects you when dealing with the carrier.

With 8 586 km between Metropolitan Oakland International Airport and Stockholm-Arlanda Airport, EU regulation grants you a fixed indemnity of 600€ per passenger.
