Procedure: United Feeder Service flight compensation from Nantes to Rome

From Nantes Atlantique Airport airport, your departure with United Feeder Service to Rome 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 1 247 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: Nantes Atlantique Airport (NTE)
  • Arrival airport: Leonardo Da Vinci (Fiumicino) International Airport (FCO)
  • Flight distance: 1 247 km (~1h34)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.

How to know if the flight United Feeder Service Nantes - Rome is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Leonardo Da Vinci (Fiumicino) International Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, United Feeder Service owes you 250 €.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If United Feeder Service sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Nantes Atlantique Airport, the 250 € compensation is automatic.

What are the conditions for United Feeder Service to compensate you?

  • Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Rome.
  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Nantes airport.
  • Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to United Feeder Service (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Nantes, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

The impact of a strike on your United Feeder Service compensation

If your United Feeder Service flight from Nantes Atlantique Airport was cancelled due to an internal union strike, you are eligible for legal repair.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Nantes Atlantique 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 Nantes airport in case of prolonged wait?

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. United Feeder Service must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Nantes.

Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Nantes Atlantique Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by United Feeder Service.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from United Feeder Service?

The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Leonardo Da Vinci (Fiumicino) International Airport airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.

To maximize your chances of success, use a collection service. These experts know the case law perfectly and will not be intimidated by the legal department of United Feeder Service.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
