Guide: claim for Wizz Air flight from Trondheim to Gdansk

The good news is, for this journey of 1 097 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 obliges Wizz Air 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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Arrival airport: Gda?sk Lech Wa??sa Airport (GDN)
  • Flight distance: 1 097 km (~1h22)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

Contrary to what {many think|Wizz Air might suggest}, this indemnity is not linked to the ticket price. A budget fare offers identical protection as a full-fare purchase.
