How to be compensated by Norwegian Air Shuttle on the Stockholm (ARN) - Chania (CHQ) line
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Stockholm and Chania 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 2 720 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.

How to know if the flight Norwegian Air Shuttle Stockholm - Chania is eligible?
For an Norwegian Air Shuttle flight from Stockholm to Chania, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 400 €.

-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Stockholm airport.

The impact of a strike on your Norwegian Air Shuttle compensation
If your Norwegian Air Shuttle flight from Stockholm-Arlanda Airport was cancelled due to an internal union strike, you are eligible for legal repair.
On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Stockholm-Arlanda 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 Stockholm 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 Stockholm-Arlanda 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 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?
Getting justice against carrier Norwegian Air Shuttle requires perseverance. No response or standardized refusals are common tactics.
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?
On the ARN-CHQ line, delays can vary according to the reactivity of Norwegian Air Shuttle's legal department.
Recovering 400 € has never been faster thanks to the interconnection between defense platforms and Norwegian Air Shuttle systems.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
The use of complex legal jargon by Norwegian Air Shuttle is often a maneuver to encourage the traveler to abandon their 400 €.
DGAC or its European equivalents can be slow. A private court proceeding against Norwegian Air Shuttle is often more striking.
