Flight compensation Vueling Airlines:
Barcelona — Venice

Get your Vueling Airlines flight compensation for the route Barcelona - Venice

From Barcelona International Airport airport, your departure with Vueling Airlines to Venice didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 952 km of flight, the company Vueling Airlines 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.

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 Vueling Airlines Barcelona - Venice is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Venezia / Tessera - Marco Polo Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Vueling Airlines owes you 250 €.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Vueling Airlines sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Barcelona International Airport, the 250 € compensation is automatic.

What are the conditions for Vueling Airlines 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 Barcelona airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Vueling Airlines (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Vueling Airlines compensation

Don't be fooled by Vueling Airlines's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.

Even if 250 € is not payable due to an external strike at Barcelona, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Vueling Airlines.

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

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