How to be compensated by Tunisair on the Marseille (MRS) - Djerba (DJE) line
From Marseille Provence Airport airport, your departure with Tunisair to Djerba didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.
Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 1 167 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.
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: Marseille Provence Airport (MRS)
- Arrival airport: Djerba Zarzis International Airport (DJE)
- Flight distance: 1 167 km (~1h28)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.
How to know if the flight Tunisair Marseille - Djerba is eligible?
The compensation for flight MRS-DJE is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.
An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Marseille Provence Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 250 €.
What are the conditions for Tunisair to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Djerba.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Marseille airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Tunisair (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Marseille, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Tunisair compensation
A work stoppage of Tunisair crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 250 €.
Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Tunisair 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 Marseille 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 Marseille Provence Airport airport, Tunisair is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.
Do not hesitate to request this assistance at the company's counter. If it is refused and you have to advance food or hotel costs at Marseille Provence Airport, keep your receipts carefully to request direct reimbursement.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Tunisair?
The amicable route with Tunisair to recover 250 € often fails without a technical and legal file.
Partner LegalTech services have tools to check actual Tunisair flight logs and contradict false weather excuses.
How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
Some passengers wait more than 6 months for a response from Tunisair. An expert can reduce this time by half.
Technology today allows real-time tracking of the progress of your request against Tunisair on your smartphone.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
It is not uncommon for a claim for 250 € to be automatically rejected by the company's algorithms under a fallacious generic pretext.
If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
