Claim and compensation for flight Scandinavian Airlines System Oslo - Alta
Your claim for compensation for the Scandinavian Airlines System flight from Oslo to Alta 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 1 234 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.
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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Oslo Gardermoen Airport (OSL)
- Arrival airport: Alta Airport (ALF)
- Flight distance: 1 234 km (~1h33)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
This is not a commercial gesture from Scandinavian Airlines System, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.
How to know if the flight Scandinavian Airlines System Oslo - Alta is eligible?
Check your actual arrival time at Alta. If Scandinavian Airlines System made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Alta Airport, your claim is legitimate.
In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Oslo, the regulation applies in the same way.
What are the conditions for Scandinavian Airlines System to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Alta.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Oslo 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 Oslo, 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
Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Oslo - Alta trip is due to an internal strike within Scandinavian Airlines System, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.
Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Scandinavian Airlines System is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 250 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.
What are your rights at Oslo airport in case of prolonged wait?
If Oslo Gardermoen Airport airport becomes your temporary residence because of Scandinavian Airlines System, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.
Your forced stay at Oslo shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your OSL-ALF trip.
