Flight compensation Scandinavian Airlines System:
Alesund — Copenhagen

Scandinavian Airlines System passengers Alesund-Copenhagen: your guide to get compensated

The route AES - CPH by Scandinavian Airlines System was disrupted? Whatever the cause, you could qualify for financial compensation.

With 857 km between Alesund and Copenhagen Kastrup Airport, EU regulation grants you a fixed indemnity of 250€ per passenger.

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.

This is by no means a commercial courtesy from Scandinavian Airlines System, but a binding duty that applies to all flights subject to the scope of the directive.

How to know if the flight Scandinavian Airlines System Alesund - Copenhagen is eligible?

Be sure to save your boarding pass for the Scandinavian Airlines System AES→CPH flight. They constitute the indispensable proof of your check-in.

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Copenhagen.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.

• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Scandinavian Airlines System (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Scandinavian Airlines System compensation
