Flight compensation Norwegian Air Shuttle:
Paris — Stockholm

How to be compensated by Norwegian Air Shuttle on the Paris (ORY) - Stockholm (ARN) line

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Norwegian Air Shuttle did not respect its scheduled times for your Paris - Stockholm flight, the law is on your side.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 1 573 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.

This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.

How to know if the flight Norwegian Air Shuttle Paris - Stockholm is eligible?

For an Norwegian Air Shuttle flight from Paris to Stockholm, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 400 €.

An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Paris-Orly Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 400 €.

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

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Stockholm.
• 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...).

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.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Paris-Orly Airport airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 400 € will not be due.

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.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Norwegian Air Shuttle?

The amicable route with Norwegian Air Shuttle to recover 400 € often fails without a technical and legal file.

Don't fill out complex forms on the Norwegian Air Shuttle website. Go through a passenger defense portal to secure your 400 € indemnity.

How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?

Don't be surprised if you don't hear back within fifteen days of your request. The average time observed for a company like Norwegian Air Shuttle to validate a complex file often varies between four and twelve weeks.

If your file is particularly solid regarding the incident occurred on the Paris - Stockholm section, some refund organizations even buy your debt. You then receive your compensation in less than 48 hours!

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

An unfounded refusal from Norwegian Air Shuttle is a practice that experts know perfectly how to bypass by citing the right articles of Regulation 261.

A claim organization will know exactly how to counter the airline's arguments, having access to certified meteorological histories and traffic reports from Paris-Orly Airport airport to prove their faults.
