Claim up to 250€ for Wizz Air flight Bergamo - Skopje
A delay over 3 hours on Wizz Air Bergamo - Skopje entitles you to up to 250€. Find out if you're eligible.
The passenger protection under CE 261/2004 kicks in automatically when Wizz Air fails its obligations on the 1 040 km route from Bergamo to Skopje.
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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Bergamo / Orio Al Serio Airport (BGY)
- Arrival airport: Skopje Alexander the Great Airport (SKP)
- Flight distance: 1 040 km (~1h18)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
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.
How to know if the flight Wizz Air Bergamo - Skopje is eligible?
Your eligibility rests on objective criteria. Eurocontrol data will verify the precise moment of actual arrival at Skopje Alexander the Great Airport.
Watch out for traps: Wizz Air might try to ask you to give up your rights. Don't accept anything before checking with a legal professional.
What are the conditions for Wizz Air to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Skopje.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Bergamo airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Wizz Air (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Bergamo, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Wizz Air compensation
The rule is simple: if Wizz Air's employees go on strike, it is a risk that {the airline|Wizz Air} must manage. Consequently, {your compensation|the 250€} is maintained.
Don't take at face value Wizz Air's explanation. Many airlines wrongly categorise their own staff disputes as force majeure to avoid {paying compensation|the 250€}.
What are your rights at Bergamo airport in case of prolonged wait?
The duty of assistance is a essential provision of the EU text. Independently of the 250€ question, if the delay extends at Bergamo / Orio Al Serio Airport, Wizz Air must distribute meal vouchers.
Even in force majeure cases, the right to assistance at Bergamo still applies. The hotel must be provided if Wizz Air delays your flight overnight.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Wizz Air?
Launching a claim against Wizz Air for a flight from Bergamo to Skopje can be complex if you act without help. The airline's team frequently will invoke extraordinary circumstances to dodge liability.
If you don't have the time for lengthy email exchanges, delegating your claim to specialists is the fastest way to see your 250€ credited in your account.
How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
A common question is about processing times. A claim filed directly to Wizz Air's customer service can take months, even half a year before you hear back.
