Flight compensation VOLOTEA Airways:
Venice — Olbia

How to be compensated by VOLOTEA Airways on the Venice (VCE) - Olbia (OLB) line

From Venezia / Tessera - Marco Polo Airport airport, your departure with VOLOTEA Airways to Olbia didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 561 km of flight, the company VOLOTEA Airways is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.

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 Venice - Olbia is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Olbia / Costa Smeralda Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, VOLOTEA Airways owes you 250 €.

Keeping your travel documents for the VOLOTEA Airways VCE-OLB flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Venice.

What are the conditions for VOLOTEA Airways to compensate you?

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

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 Venice airport in case of prolonged wait?

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. VOLOTEA Airways must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Venice.

Do not hesitate to request this assistance at the company's counter. If it is refused and you have to advance food or hotel costs at Venezia / Tessera - Marco Polo Airport, keep your receipts carefully to request direct reimbursement.
