Refund and compensation Vueling Airlines: route Paris to Valencia

Your claim for compensation for the Vueling Airlines flight from Paris to Valencia deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.

By taking off from Paris-Orly Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 1 052 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.

Did you know? Even if Vueling Airlines is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Paris-Orly Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

Check your actual arrival time at Valencia. If Vueling Airlines made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Valencia Airport, your claim is legitimate.

Also note that the distance of 1 052 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.

What are the conditions for Vueling Airlines to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Valencia.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Paris airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Vueling Airlines (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
