Flight compensation VOLOTEA Airways:
Nantes — Bastia

Procedure: VOLOTEA Airways flight compensation from Nantes to Bastia

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If VOLOTEA Airways did not respect its scheduled times for your Nantes - Bastia flight, the law is on your side.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 1 012 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires VOLOTEA Airways to pay you financial compensation.

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.

Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.

How to know if the flight VOLOTEA Airways Nantes - Bastia is eligible?

The compensation for flight NTE-BIA is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If VOLOTEA Airways 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 VOLOTEA Airways to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Bastia.
• 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 VOLOTEA Airways (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your VOLOTEA Airways compensation

The question of strikes is a frequent point of friction during a claim. It is vital to distinguish between a strike by VOLOTEA Airways staff (pilots, flight attendants) and an external strike.

The nuance is subtle, but essential. By calling on specialized lawyers, they will check the actual flight causative factors in the aeronautical databases reported by the captain on the day of your Nantes - Bastia flight.

What are your rights at Nantes 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 Nantes Atlantique Airport airport, VOLOTEA Airways is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Nantes Atlantique Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.
