Know Your Passenger Rights

Knowing what you’re entitled to before you make a Scandinavian Airlines complaint will give you just the ammunition you need to get your complaint resolved and possibly receive compensation for your trouble.

For flights within the EU and even those arriving in the EU from other areas are governed by a strict regulation called EU 261/2004.

When you’re making SAS complaints, your best bet is to do everything in writing. This provides a paper trail should you need to prove your case down the road. Plus, then the airline will typically reply in writing, giving you a clear record of their position.

It’s important to include all the pertinent information in your complaint. Start with your personal information and flight details. Then, provide a clear and concise account of exactly what happened to cause your complaint. Also, include any supporting documents that help to back up your claim.
