How to be compensated by VOLOTEA Airways on the Prague (PRG) - Nantes (NTE) line

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

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 1 209 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.

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 Prague - Nantes is eligible?

For an VOLOTEA Airways flight from Prague to Nantes, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 250 €.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If VOLOTEA Airways sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Ruzyn? International 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 Nantes.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Prague 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.

In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.

What are your rights at Prague 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 Ruzyn? International Airport airport, VOLOTEA Airways is required to distribute vouchers to eat and drink.

Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Ruzyn? International Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by VOLOTEA Airways.
