Flight compensation Scandinavian Airlines System:
Oslo — Barcelona

Complete guide: Scandinavian Airlines System compensation Oslo - Barcelona

If your journey from Oslo Gardermoen Airport to Barcelona International Airport operated by Scandinavian Airlines System was disrupted, the law protects you when dealing with the carrier.

Given the route between Oslo and Barcelona (2 182 km), the EU scale provides for automatic protection in case of a breach by Scandinavian Airlines System. Medium-haul flights attract a substantial indemnity.

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.

Good to know? Even if Scandinavian Airlines System is a airline based outside the EU, if the flight takes off from Oslo Gardermoen Airport, CE 261 applies in full.

How to know if the flight Scandinavian Airlines System Oslo - Barcelona is eligible?

Be sure to save your travel documents for the Scandinavian Airlines System OSL→BCN flight. They constitute the key proof of your check-in.

An class change doesn't change your right to 400€ if the initial disruption is established under Regulation 261. The intermediate indemnity remains unchanged regardless of reclassification.

What are the conditions for Scandinavian Airlines System to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Barcelona.
• 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...).
