Legal right to compensation: VOLOTEA Airways flight between Valencia and Aviles
Your claim for compensation for the VOLOTEA Airways flight from Valencia to Aviles deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.
European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 647 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.
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: Valencia Airport (VLC)
- Arrival airport: Asturias Airport (OVD)
- Flight distance: 647 km (~0h49)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
This is not a commercial gesture from VOLOTEA Airways, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if VOLOTEA Airways offers you a voucher for your Valencia - Aviles flight, you can still claim the 250 euros cash provided by law.
Also note that the distance of 647 km perfectly justifies the compensation bracket of 250 €. This amount is net and the airline cannot derogate from it in its own terms and conditions.

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 Valencia - Aviles flight.
