Andoya — Bodo

Legal payout: Widerøe flight Andoya → Bodo

Boarding denied on your Widerøe flight Andoya ✈ Bodo? This affects many passengers regularly. Good news: you have concrete rights.

The good news is, for this journey of 237 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 obliges Widerøe to provide financial compensation. On a short-haul flight like this, a specific compensation tier applies.

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.

Bear in mind: only genuine force majeure (exceptional conditions, ATC restrictions, political instability) exempt Widerøe from this obligation. In all other cases, compensation must be paid.

How to know if the flight Widerøe Andoya - Bodo is eligible?

The compensation for ANX→BOO is redress for the inconvenience caused, not just a refund of airport taxes. For this short-haul flight, the 3-hour threshold remains the key criterion.

If you had a connection are equally covered. If your first Widerøe segment Andoya→Bodo leads to a missed connection, the total delay at your final destination counts.

What are the conditions for Widerøe to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Widerøe compensation

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

Once the delay reaches the regulatory threshold, i.e. 2 hours for flights ≤1500 km, Widerøe must automatically provide the regulatory care to all passenger{s} waiting at Andoya.
