How to know if the flight Twin Jet Metz - Marseille is eligible?
The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Marseille Provence Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Twin Jet owes you 250 €.
Keeping your travel documents for the Twin Jet ETZ-MRS flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Metz.
What are the conditions for Twin Jet to compensate you?
-

-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Metz airport.

The impact of a strike on your Twin Jet compensation
When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Marseille Provence 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.
On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Metz-Nancy-Lorraine Airport airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 250 € will not be due.
What are your rights at Metz airport in case of prolonged wait?
Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Twin Jet must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Metz.
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 Metz-Nancy-Lorraine Airport, keep your receipts carefully to request direct reimbursement.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
The use of complex legal jargon by Twin Jet is often a maneuver to encourage the traveler to abandon their 250 €.
For your 250 €, don't compromise with Twin Jet without the opinion of a professional who knows the real value of your prejudice at Metz.
