Claim and compensation for flight Scandinavian Airlines System Oslo - Barcelona

If your trip departing from Oslo Gardermoen Airport and arriving at Barcelona International Airport operated by Scandinavian Airlines System was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

Given the route between Oslo and Barcelona (2 182 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by Scandinavian Airlines System.

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.

Did you know? Even if Scandinavian Airlines System is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Oslo Gardermoen Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

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

Check your actual arrival time at Barcelona. If Scandinavian Airlines System made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Barcelona International Airport, your claim is legitimate.

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...).

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Barcelona International 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.

In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.

What are your rights at Oslo airport in case of prolonged wait?
