Flight compensation Wizz Air:
Stockholm — Belgrade

Claim up to 400€ for Wizz Air flight Stockholm - Belgrade

The endless wait at Stockholm Skavsta Airport towards Belgrade with Wizz Air doesn't have to go uncompensated. Let's explore your options.

The passenger protection under CE 261/2004 kicks in automatically when Wizz Air fails its obligations on the 1 570 km route from Stockholm to Belgrade.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

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.

Note your actual arrival time at Belgrade. If Wizz Air made you wait more than three hours at Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport, your right is established.
