Refund and compensation Pakistan International Airlines: route Barcelona to Lahore

If your trip departing from Barcelona International Airport and arriving at Alama Iqbal International Airport operated by Pakistan International Airlines was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 6 377 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.

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.

The case law of the CJEU has strengthened these rights over the years, transforming Regulation 261/2004 into an effective shield against abuses by carriers like Pakistan International Airlines.

How to know if the flight Pakistan International Airlines Barcelona - Lahore is eligible?

To determine if your trip between Barcelona and Lahore entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.

Also note that the distance of 6 377 km perfectly justifies the compensation bracket of 600 €. This amount is net and the airline cannot derogate from it in its own terms and conditions.

What are the conditions for Pakistan International Airlines to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Lahore.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Barcelona airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Pakistan International Airlines (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
