How to be compensated by Norwegian Air Shuttle on the Paris (ORY) - Helsinki (HEL) line
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Paris and Helsinki with Norwegian Air Shuttle? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 1 928 km of flight, the company Norwegian Air Shuttle is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.
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: Paris-Orly Airport (ORY)
- Arrival airport: Helsinki Vantaa Airport (HEL)
- Flight distance: 1 928 km (~2h25)
- Applicable compensation: 400 €
Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.
How to know if the flight Norwegian Air Shuttle Paris - Helsinki is eligible?
The compensation for flight ORY-HEL is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.
Keeping your travel documents for the Norwegian Air Shuttle ORY-HEL flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Paris.
What are the conditions for Norwegian Air Shuttle to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Helsinki.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Paris 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 Paris, 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
Don't be fooled by Norwegian Air Shuttle's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.
A strike by weather services at Paris-Orly Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Norwegian Air Shuttle has no control.
What are your rights at Paris airport in case of prolonged wait?
The right to assistance is a crucial provision of the European text. Even before speaking of your 400 €, if the delay stretches at Paris-Orly Airport airport, Norwegian Air Shuttle is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.
If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Paris-Orly Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.
