Full breakdown: Norwegian Air Shuttle claim Stockholm → Barcelona
The flight ARN → BCN by Norwegian Air Shuttle suffered an incident? Delay, cancellation or overbooking, you may be entitled to a legal payout.
Given the distance between Stockholm and Barcelona (2 315 km), CE 261 mandates a statutory payout in case of fault by Norwegian Air Shuttle. Medium-haul flights attract a substantial indemnity.
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.

- Departure airport: Stockholm-Arlanda Airport (ARN)
- Arrival airport: Barcelona International Airport (BCN)
- Flight distance: 2 315 km (~2h54)
