Get your Norwegian Air Shuttle flight compensation for the route Tenerife - Berlin

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

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 3 671 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 600 €?

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.

  • Arrival airport: Berlin (SXF)
  • Flight distance: 3 671 km (~4h35)
