Your claim for compensation for the United Feeder Service flight from Geneva to Venice deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.

The impact of a strike on your United Feeder Service compensation
Don't be fooled by United Feeder Service's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.
A strike by weather services at Geneva Cointrin International Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which United Feeder Service has no control.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
Patience is often the watchword. Airlines receive thousands of requests weekly and processing your file for the flight from Geneva to Venezia / Tessera - Marco Polo Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.
By entrusting the recovery of your 250 € to a trusted third party, you save yourself months of waiting and the anxiety of seeing your case closed without follow-up, as reminders are managed by aviation law professionals.
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.
