Flight compensation Widerøe:
Alesund — Bergen

File your refund for Widerøe Alesund → Bergen

The stress of a cancellation at Alesund towards Bergen with Widerøe gives you a right to a payout. Here are the steps you can take.

The legal coverage under CE 261/2004 applies by law when Widerøe breaches its duties on the 257 km route from Alesund to Bergen.

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.

Since the Sturgeon ruling of 2009, delays over 3 hours are treated the same as cancellations regarding payout entitlement. This greatly broadened the scope of the regulation.
