Get your Nouvel Air Tunisie flight compensation for the route Lyon - Monastir

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 1 206 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.

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.

  • Arrival airport: Monastir Habib Bourguiba International Airport (MIR)
  • Flight distance: 1 206 km (~1h30)

For an Nouvel Air Tunisie flight from Lyon to Monastir, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 250 €.

Keeping your travel documents for the Nouvel Air Tunisie LYS-MIR flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Lyon.

The impact of a strike on your Nouvel Air Tunisie compensation

A work stoppage of Nouvel Air Tunisie crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 250 €.

Even if 250 € is not payable due to an external strike at Lyon, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Nouvel Air Tunisie.
