Right to care with delays longer than 2 hours
If you’re facing an unplanned strike, it can take you by surprise. If you’re at the airport and your Amapola Flyg flight is delayed for more than 2 hours, you have the right to food, drink, and even a hotel stay if needed. In some cases, the airline will provide vouchers for food and drink, but it’s important to keep receipts if they’re not provided.
Accepting an alternative flight from Amapola Flyg is not obligatory
The airline has to provide you with a free alternative flight. They are supposed to offer you the first available flight, but if all the upcoming flights are overbooked, you may receive an alternative option that makes your travel pointless. If you reject the proposed flight, the airline must refund the ticket price, and if they don’t provide an alternative, they need to reimburse the price difference if you book a better option yourself.
Tip: Before doing anything, it’s best to wait for a final notice from Amapola Flyg
There may be few alternative flights available from other airlines. Of course, you want to secure another flight as soon as possible. However, we advise you not to book an alternative flight yourself before you have received final confirmation from Amapola Flyg that your flight has been cancelled. If the strike is called off, you will lose your money.
Affected by the strike of Amapola Flyg? You are entitled to compensation
In the event of a strike by the airline’s own personnel, such as pilots, cabin crew, or ground staff, Amapola Flyg can be held accountable. According to Regulation 261/2004, this is not considered force majeure, and you have the right to compensation if your arrival is delayed by more than 3 hours or you arrive 1 hour earlier.
The compensation amount is based on the distance of your travel and whether the cancellation of your flight was communicated less than 2 weeks before your departure.
The amount of compensation is not dependent on your ticket price. It is possible that the compensation you receive is higher than the cost of your ticket. The amount of compensation is determined based on the distance of the journey.
