Flight compensation Wizz Air:
Bergamo — Skopje

Legal right to compensation: Wizz Air flight between Bergamo and Skopje

If your trip departing from Bergamo / Orio Al Serio Airport and arriving at Skopje Alexander the Great Airport operated by Wizz Air was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

Given the route between Bergamo and Skopje (1 040 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by Wizz Air.

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 Wizz Air is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Bergamo / Orio Al Serio Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Wizz Air Bergamo - Skopje is eligible?

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Wizz Air offers you a voucher for your Bergamo - Skopje flight, you can still claim the 250 euros cash provided by law.

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

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...).

The impact of a strike on your Wizz Air compensation

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Skopje Alexander the Great Airport, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Bergamo / Orio Al Serio Airport airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 250 € will not be due.

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

Don't buy your food without first asking Wizz Air for coupons. If you do, keep your receipts carefully.

Your forced stay at Bergamo shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your BGY-SKP trip.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Wizz Air?

Starting a procedure against Wizz Air for a flight from Bergamo to Skopje can be complex if you decide to go it alone. Customer service often tends to invoke the weather to clear themselves.

If you don't have the time or the desire to engage in long email exchanges, delegating your claim to lawyers is the most effective solution to see your 250 € arrive in your bank account.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

A frequent question concerns processing times. A claim filed directly with Wizz Air customer service can take several weeks or even months before getting a response.

Recovering 250 € has never been faster thanks to the interconnection between defense platforms and Wizz Air systems.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?

The first refusal from Wizz Air should not discourage you. Very often, passenger services invoke 'weather' by default to test the traveler's determination.

For your 250 €, don't compromise with Wizz Air without the opinion of a professional who knows the real value of your prejudice at Bergamo.
