Get your VOLOTEA Airways flight compensation for the route Nantes - Palma de Mallorca
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Nantes and Palma de Mallorca with VOLOTEA Airways? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 915 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: Palma De Mallorca Airport (PMI)
- Flight distance: 915 km (~1h09)
- 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 VOLOTEA Airways Nantes - Palma de Mallorca is eligible?
The compensation for flight NTE-PMI is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.
An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Nantes Atlantique Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 250 €.
What are the conditions for VOLOTEA Airways to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Palma de Mallorca.
-
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...).
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 VOLOTEA Airways compensation
A work stoppage of VOLOTEA Airways 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, VOLOTEA Airways 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 Nantes airport in case of prolonged wait?
In addition to financial compensation, the European regulation guarantees what is called a 'right to care.' If your flight is delayed departing from Nantes Atlantique Airport, VOLOTEA Airways must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.
Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Nantes Atlantique Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by VOLOTEA Airways.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from VOLOTEA Airways?
Getting justice against carrier VOLOTEA Airways requires perseverance. No response or standardized refusals are common tactics.
Don't fill out complex forms on the VOLOTEA Airways website. Go through a passenger defense portal to secure your 250 € indemnity.
How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
Some passengers wait more than 6 months for a response from VOLOTEA Airways. An expert can reduce this time by half.
