Get your Scandinavian Airlines System flight compensation for the route Luxemburg - Copenhagen
No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Scandinavian Airlines System did not respect its scheduled times for your Luxemburg - Copenhagen flight, the law is on your side.
Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 795 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Scandinavian Airlines System to pay you financial compensation.
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.

- Departure airport: Luxembourg-Findel International Airport (LUX)
- Arrival airport: Copenhagen Kastrup Airport (CPH)
- Flight distance: 795 km (~0h60)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.
How to know if the flight Scandinavian Airlines System Luxemburg - Copenhagen is eligible?
The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Copenhagen Kastrup Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Scandinavian Airlines System owes you 250 €.
The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Scandinavian Airlines System sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Luxembourg-Findel International Airport, the 250 € compensation is automatic.
What are the conditions for Scandinavian Airlines System to compensate you?
-
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.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Luxemburg airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Scandinavian Airlines System (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Luxemburg, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Scandinavian Airlines System compensation
When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Copenhagen Kastrup Airport, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.
The nuance is subtle, but essential. By calling on specialized lawyers, they will check the actual flight causative factors in the aeronautical databases reported by the captain on the day of your Luxemburg - Copenhagen flight.
What are your rights at Luxemburg airport in case of prolonged wait?
The right to assistance is a crucial provision of the European text. Even before speaking of your 250 €, if the delay stretches at Luxembourg-Findel International Airport airport, Scandinavian Airlines System is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.
Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Luxembourg-Findel International Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by Scandinavian Airlines System.
