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

Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Stockholm and Ajaccio 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 2 068 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: Stockholm-Arlanda Airport (ARN)
  • Arrival airport: Ajaccio (AJA)
  • Flight distance: 2 068 km (~2h35)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €

Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.

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

For an Norwegian Air Shuttle flight from Stockholm to Ajaccio, 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 Stockholm-Arlanda 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 Ajaccio.
  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Stockholm 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 Stockholm, 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 Stockholm - Ajaccio trip is due to an internal strike within Norwegian Air Shuttle, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

A strike by weather services at Stockholm-Arlanda Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Norwegian Air Shuttle has no control.

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

In addition to financial compensation, the European regulation guarantees what is called a 'right to care.' If your flight is delayed departing from Stockholm-Arlanda Airport, Norwegian Air Shuttle must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Stockholm-Arlanda 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 formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Ajaccio airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.

Partner LegalTech services have tools to check actual Norwegian Air Shuttle flight logs and contradict false weather excuses.

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

Patience is often the watchword. Airlines receive thousands of requests weekly and processing your file for the flight from Stockholm to Ajaccio can drag on if you don't follow up.

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.

If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
