Legal right to compensation: Ryanair flight between Sevilla and Bologna
Your claim for compensation for the Ryanair flight from Sevilla to Bologna deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.
European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 1 641 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.
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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Sevilla Airport (SVQ)
- Arrival airport: Bologna / Borgo Panigale Airport (BLQ)
- Flight distance: 1 641 km (~2h03)
- Applicable compensation: 400 €
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 Ryanair.
How to know if the flight Ryanair Sevilla - Bologna is eligible?
Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Ryanair offers you a voucher for your Sevilla - Bologna flight, you can still claim the 400 euros cash provided by law.
Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 400 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.
What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Bologna.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Sevilla airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Ryanair (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Sevilla, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation
A work stoppage of Ryanair crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 400 €.
Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Ryanair is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 400 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.
What are your rights at Sevilla airport in case of prolonged wait?
If Sevilla Airport airport becomes your temporary residence because of Ryanair, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.
Your forced stay at Sevilla shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your SVQ-BLQ trip.
