Claim and compensation for flight Norwegian Air Shuttle Oslo - Prague

The OSL - PRG route operated by Norwegian Air Shuttle experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 1 132 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: Oslo Gardermoen Airport (OSL)
  • Arrival airport: Ruzyn? International Airport (PRG)
  • Flight distance: 1 132 km (~1h25)
  • 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 Oslo - Prague is eligible?

To determine if your trip between Oslo and Prague entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.

In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Oslo, the regulation applies in the same way.

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

  • Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Prague.
  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Oslo 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 Oslo, 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

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Oslo - Prague trip is due to an internal strike within Norwegian Air Shuttle, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

Even if 250 € is not payable due to an external strike at Oslo, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Norwegian Air Shuttle.

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

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

In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Oslo Gardermoen Airport airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Norwegian Air Shuttle?

It is strongly recommended to keep your Norwegian Air Shuttle boarding pass and any communication relating to the delay suffered at Oslo Gardermoen Airport airport. These documents will be vital for your case.

By entrusting your case regarding flight OSL-PRG to our experts, you benefit from the 'No Win, No Fee' principle.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

Airlines like Norwegian Air Shuttle sometimes prioritize cases defended by law firms to avoid late interests.

Technology today allows real-time tracking of the progress of your request against Norwegian Air Shuttle on your smartphone.

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

Don't take Norwegian Air Shuttle's email for granted claiming that the airport was blocked by snow without checking official reports.

In the last instance, it is the summons to court that often unlocks the payment. The company Norwegian Air Shuttle will always prefer to compromise and pay the 250 € rather than incur additional legal costs for a lost cause in court.
