How to be compensated by Norwegian Air Shuttle on the Riga (RIX) - Oslo (OSL) line

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

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 828 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 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.

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 Riga - Oslo is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Oslo Gardermoen Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Norwegian Air Shuttle owes you 250 €.

Keeping your travel documents for the Norwegian Air Shuttle RIX-OSL flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Riga.

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

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

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Oslo Gardermoen Airport, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.

In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.
