Compensação e reparação Brussels Airlines: rota Washington para Brussels

A frustração de um cancelamento em Washington Dulles International Airport rumo a Brussels com a Brussels Airlines dá-lhe direito a reparação. Eis os passos a seguir.

A cobertura legal do CE 261/2004 aplica-se de pleno direito quando a Brussels Airlines falha nos seus deveres na rota de 6 247 km entre Washington e Brussels.

Porque tem direito a 600 €?

O Regulamento europeu CE 261/2004 é muito rigoroso quanto aos direitos dos passageiros aéreos. O montante da indemnização fixa não depende do preço do bilhete, mas apenas da distância de voo.

A casuística do Tribunal de Justiça da UE consolidou estes direitos desde 2004, transformando o Regulamento 261/2004 num escudo eficaz contra os abusos de transportadoras como a Brussels Airlines.
