Flight compensation Widerøe:
Bergen — Stavanger

Refund and compensation Widerøe: route Bergen to Stavanger

If your trip departing from Bergen Airport, Flesland and arriving at Stavanger Airport, Sola operated by Widerøe was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

Given the route between Bergen and Stavanger (159 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by Widerøe.

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 is not a commercial gesture from Widerøe, but a legal obligation that applies to all flights within the scope of the directive.

How to know if the flight Widerøe Bergen - Stavanger is eligible?

Check your actual arrival time at Stavanger. If Widerøe made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Stavanger Airport, Sola, your claim is legitimate.

Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 250 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.

What are the conditions for Widerøe to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Widerøe compensation

The question of strikes is a frequent point of friction during a claim. It is vital to distinguish between a strike by Widerøe staff (pilots, flight attendants) and an external strike.

In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.

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

If Bergen Airport, Flesland airport becomes your temporary residence because of Widerøe, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.

In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Bergen Airport, Flesland airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Widerøe?
