Refund and compensation VOLOTEA Airways: route Olbia to Venice

Your claim for compensation for the VOLOTEA Airways flight from Olbia to Venice deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.

By taking off from Olbia / Costa Smeralda Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 561 km determines your legal compensation level.

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.

This is not a commercial gesture from VOLOTEA Airways, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.

How to know if the flight VOLOTEA Airways Olbia - Venice is eligible?

To determine if your trip between Olbia and Venice entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.

In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Olbia, the regulation applies in the same way.

What are the conditions for VOLOTEA Airways to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Venice.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Olbia 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

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Olbia - Venice trip is due to an internal strike within VOLOTEA Airways, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

A strike by weather services at Olbia / Costa Smeralda Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which VOLOTEA Airways has no control.

What are your rights at Olbia airport in case of prolonged wait?

If Olbia / Costa Smeralda Airport airport becomes your temporary residence because of VOLOTEA Airways, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.

In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Olbia / Costa Smeralda Airport airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.

A collective action on the VOLOTEA Airways flight from Olbia can also be a way to get your funds faster.

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.

In the last instance, it is the summons to court that often unlocks the payment. The company VOLOTEA Airways will always prefer to compromise and pay the 250 € rather than incur additional legal costs for a lost cause in court.
