Reimburse Cost of Transportation
Diverted to Palermo. Volotea said a bus would be at Palermo arrivals 7:50am to take passengers to Catania (orig airport). No representative and no bus at Palermo. Had to take a taxi to Catania. Requested Volotea under EU261/2004 reimburse expense of transportation.Overall

Dear Volotea Customer Relations, I am writing regarding booking T7YSMF, passenger EL YASS Assia, flight V7 1346 Venice to Bordeaux on 16 October 2026 at 06:15. Booking date: 23 September 2026 On 29 September 2026, you sent me an email: Informazioni importanti sul tuo volo T7Y SMF - flight cancelled. On 30 September 2025, you sent me an email: "Assia, la tua prenotazione è confermata!" for the SAME booking T7YSMF. I trusted it. Based on your confirmation I booked Ryanair NAP-VCE (B69KQQ). Four days before departure, when i got in app to make check in online I discovered that the flight was cancelled again. I received no email, no SMS, no notification. Furthermore i must stress that this trip is very important and mandatory event in Bordeaux where my present is strictly required on 17/09/2026 .this situation caused me a lot of stress and anxiety . Due to your misleading confirmation and failure to notify me, I lost my Ryanair flight and had to buy new ticket bus Naples to Rome and new flight Rome to Bordeaux. Under EU Regulation EC 261/2004,kindly I request: Full refund of T7YSMF Reimbursement of consequential losses: Ryanair B69KQQ +ticket NAP-ROM + new flight ROM-BOD EU261 compensation cancellation without proper notification Evidence attached: 29 Sept cancellation email. 30 Sept confirmation email Ryanair B69KQQ receipt New ticket receipts NAP-ROM and ROM-BOD App screenshot showing cancellation without notice looking forward reply as soon as possible Kind regards questo email che avevo mandato non mi hanno risposto ancoraUnknown
We booked our VOLOTEA flight from Marseille to Athens BYFH9T on OMIO’s site since it was not possible to book directly on VOLOTEA’s site from Sweden. OMIO’s site advised us to add cabin luggage on VOLOTEA’s site. The day before our flight on the 9th of October my partner was DESPERATELY trying to check in during ONE hour and add two cabin luggage. The process was very complicated. After trying at least ten times on your site, he was finally sure that he had managed to add added the luggage and as he understood he had also payed the required amount of 42 euros for it. During his many attempts he was complaining about the VOLOTEA site and difficulties to find the right way to do such a simple thing. Anyway when boarding at the gate we were informed in a rather abrupt way that our two small cabin luggage were not paid for. We had to wait at the gate until all passagers had got on board and pay 130 euros. I was trying to explain the problems with checking in the bags and paying for them but the personal would not listen. So, I would like to make a payment of 42 euros which I intended to do from the start and get a refund of 88 euros which in this case, I do not find justified to be charged for. Best regards Patricia PhilipUnknown
I was pressured to check the bag even though it was the correct size and under the weight limit. I was told to keep checking the carousels at Naples Airport for 2 hours after the flight landed. My holiday was for 10 days on the island of Procida not Naples. No customer service from Voltea until yesterday. Luggage never left Bordeaux and then was retagged and arrived at 10:35pm on Sept 8th. Too late for a return boat to Procida and would have required a second hotel for Sept 8th. 5 days without my toiletries, lingerie, bathing suit, clothing, books, shoes, etc... For 2 days I didn’t even know if the luggage was lost or stolen as Volotea doesn’t have live tracking and zero customer service. I bought a bathing suit, dress, blouse, a few pairs of underwear and some toiletries. Then on September 14th when I tried to check in to get my boarding pass for the return flight; their website processed a duplicate payment for our return tickets. Was traveling with my husband. Yesterday they denied that and said it was for a Megavolotea subscription which is a lie because the charge was identified with the same record locator number as the return flight. My bank reversed the charges. When I submitted a claim online, it asked for my bank details which I refused since there are unauthorized charges made automatically on the website and no recourse.No reason given
We had boarded the flight to depart. the captain said we had to leave the plane for an electrical issue. We weren't provided any other information and when we asked they said we had to wait. There was no access to Cafe to get breakfast or a drink it was closed and there was no heating in the waiting area. We had to just wait for 3 hours. Then we were told we could board the plane again. Once we had boarded, there was another separate technical issue which needed to be fixed and we were left waiting on the plane for an hour. Within this period the hostess offered us a small cup of water. We eventually departed and arrived at Faro airport 4 hours and 15 minutes late.No reason given
The airline rejected my claim stating that the delay was caused by weather conditions. However, when I checked the weather on that day, conditions appeared normal, and I did not notice other flights being significantly delayed. I also contacted the airline to ask whether they could provide evidence showing that the delay was truly weather-related, but I did not receive any response. Therefore, I would like to verify whether the disruption was genuinely caused by weather conditions.No reason given
I arrived in Bordeaux on 3 July 2025 at 17:05, approximately **16 hours later than the originally scheduled arrival time** of 00:50 on 3 July 2025. Volotea first sent a reschedule message for 17:05 on the morning of 3 July (around 6:38). No further information was provided regarding accommodation, meals, or compensation rights. Airport staff were poorly informed and did not communicate any assistance measures. The airline cited a **French ATC strike** as the reason for the disruption. Volotea **did not provide any on-site assistance**: * no meals or drinks (no vouchers) * no free communication * no transport or accommodation for the overnight stay The only reimbursement provided, after my claim, was for **meal expenses**. The incident caused significant inconvenience: * I had to spend the night at the airport without assistance * The delay was long and unpredictable * It caused stress and personal disruption I also incurred additional expenses: * food costs * transport to temporary accommodation, which was only arranged for some passengers * loss of personal time and disruption of plans Additional details to support the claim: * The initial delay was caused by the late arrival of the aircraft from Bordeaux, **before the official start of the ATC strike on 3 July** * Volotea never provided proof that the delay was solely due to extraordinary circumstances * My attempts to claim compensation directly with Volotea, ENAC, and ART were **ignored or denied**No reason given
WE NEVER GOT INFORMED ABOUT THE DELAY REASON. WE WERE LEFT WAITING FOR THE DEPARTURE OF THE FLIGHT. DEPARTURE TIME WAS CHANGING ALMOST EVERY HOUR. WE GOT TO SANTORINI WITH A 23 HOURS DELAY. I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL FROM THE AIRLINE AFTER 5 HOURS OF WAITING. THEY ONLY APOLOGIZED. BOTH ME AND MY WIFE LOST A WORKING DAYNo reason given
Flight kept getting delayed and then got cancelled. We were forced to take a taxi back to hotel and had to pay. Missed out on our only day in SantoriniNo reason given
The flight was postponed continously for 4 hours and then they announced it has been cancelled for no reason. Then they announced that the flight will be done tomorrow. The reason for this cancellation could not be the weather conditions since all other flights were operating this day. They said that the plane was in stockholm but could not fly to Oslo but meanwhile there were many operating flights from stockholm to oslo and oslo to stockholm.No reason given
The flight was delayed for almost 6 hours, the airline did not take care of us, did not provide information about the reasons for the delay, did not provide water and food. Due to the delay, we spent at the airport from 4:30 to 12:00, an additional 6 hours. We planned to visit a festival in Mykonos, and unfortunately we missed most of it, due to the flight delayInfluence by other flights

I am writing to formally request a full reimbursement for the expenses incurred due to the cancellation of flight V7 1134 (Olbia to Rome), under reservation D75QRP, which included myself, my wife, and our two children (aged 9 and 6). Chronology of Events: On the day of travel, we arrived at Olbia Airport at 15:30. Due to a nearby fire, the airport remained closed for several hours, and our flight was repeatedly delayed without any clear communication or support from Volotea staff. After a 7-hour wait, at approximately 20:00, the flight was abruptly cancelled. An announcement instructed passengers to proceed to a gate for further information. However, at the gate, we were simply told to collect our luggage and seek assistance at the Volotea counter. To our surprise, there was no Volotea counter. Only two or three generic check-in desks were available, none of which had staff able to provide assistance or rebookings. The only ticketing office — shared among all airlines — had just one attendant and a massive queue of hundreds of passengers. It is important to highlight that we had a connecting international flight to Brazil at 09:00 the following morning, departing from Rome, in addition to a pre-paid hotel reservation in the city. Despite several attempts, we were unable to receive any assistance from Volotea’s ground crew — in fact, there was no visible Volotea presence at the airport. Our Only Option: Thanks to my wife’s experience in the travel industry, she managed to book new tickets with Volotea (Booking #I9UF7G) for the next morning at 06:00, at a cost of €935.09. We attempted to find accommodation in Olbia, but all hotels were fully booked due to the situation. Fortunately, our previous hotel in Porto Cervo was able to receive us for the night. Due to the unavailability of taxis, we had to arrange a private transfer to reach the hotel. After only a few hours of rest, we returned to the airport for our newly booked flight. Reimbursement Requested: We incurred the following unavoidable costs as a result of Volotea’s lack of support and the flight cancellation: • Hotel (2 rooms in Porto Cervo): €2,501.00 • Private transfer back to Olbia Airport: €180.00 • Meals for 4 people at the hotel: €139.00 • New Volotea flight tickets (Olbia to Rome): €935.09 Total Reimbursement Requested: €3,755.09 (for all 4 passengers) I am not requesting reimbursement for additional expenses such as meals at the airport, the initial transfer from the airport to the hotel, international phone calls made to resolve the situation, or the pre-paid hotel night in Rome that we were unable to use — although these also contributed significantly to our financial loss.Joceline M

The Passenger suffered a wrist injury due to a fall the night before the the flight. As there was no time so seek medical attention before the Volotea flight to Prag, I accompanied her to the airport to help with her suitcase. in order to make her travel easier, I placed her small cabin bag inside her suitcase, this made it 21.8 kg. she was asked to pay 24 E excess as a result. I explained the reason to the check in girl, pointing out the visibly swollen (and painful wrist) , pointing out that there was no other luggage, only to be told that cabin luggage is not mandatory. So we paid the excess luggage charge to avoid further stress. I appreciate the need to pay for exces luggage, but given the circumstances of this case, I can't help feeling that a little discretion and empathy would would not have been out of place. By the way, the wrist was found to have been fractured when medical care was sought the following day. Please find enclosed the copies of the boarding pass and the receipt for the excess payment.

Υπήρχε αναμονή ΧΩΡΙΣ ενημέρωση.στις οθόνες η ώρα αναχώρησης παρέμενε 21:35 ακόμα κ στις 23:07 και έλεγε gate open χωρίς όμως να είναι ανοιχτή ή να γνωρίζουμε τι ώρα θα αναχωρήσει το αεροπλάνο ή εάν έχει φτάσει.Η επιβίβαση ξεκίνησε στις 23:55 αλλά υπήρξε επιπλέον καθυστέρηση και το αεροπλάνο αναχώρησε στις 00:50 22/6/2024. Η μόνη παροχή ήταν να μην χρεωθούν σνακ κ ποτά.

We waited for our flight for more than three hours without receiving any updates or explanations about the delay. As a result, we arrived at our destination very late, at a time when public transportation had already stopped operating. The inconvenience was enormous. On top of the long wait at the airport, we also had to wait for a significant amount of time inside the plane before it finally took off. I was pregnant at the time, and the stress and exhaustion from the entire experience were overwhelming. The lack of communication and support made the situation even more difficult to handle.No reason given

Claim Regarding Canceled Flight Dear Volotea, I am writing to formally file a complaint regarding a flight cancellation that occurred on Monday, April 28th. We had a scheduled flight from Toulouse to Madrid departing at 18:50 hours. We received an email at 17:45 informing us that the flight had been canceled. The only alternative option provided to us was to change our flight to another with the same airline on Friday, May 2nd (four days after our originally scheduled flight) or to receive a refund. As a result, we were forced to purchase two tickets the following day with a different airline, incurring an additional cost of 280 euros and more than 24 hours of delay until our arrival in Madrid. Additionally, we had to extend our accommodation in Toulouse for one more day, resulting in an extra expense of 80 euros, as well as round-trip transportation to the airport at a cost of 40 euros. At no point were we given an explanation for the cancellation of our flight. Furthermore, we were not offered accommodation, transportation, food, or refreshments. We hereby request appropriate compensation for all damages incurred as a result of the cancellation of this flight and the short notice of the notification (one hour before the flight). Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, Inma amador SaelicesNo reason given
They refused compensation even if they never notified I have no mail from them from 26/11 as they claimTechnical problems
We left Gatwick one hour late. The flight went well. When we were landing,about touch the tarmac, the plane went up again. The weather was clear, sunny with a few clouds, no turbulence. We circled Brest airport for about 40 minutes and were told a technical issue was detected with a computer onboard and could not land. We were later told the plane was being diverted to Rennes. We were really scared as we thought: if we can't land in Brest, how will we land in Rennes (a smaller airport)! We heard it may be because the computer could not be fixed in Brest and the airline would have to ground the plane until fixed. Buses were organised in Rennes but we took a train. The buses would have reached Brest after a 3 hour drive and the person due to pick us up early afternoon would not have been able to wait that long. We therefore took a train. When we complained to the airline we were told no compensation as this delay was due to a weather event. This is a lie.Technical problems
The flight left Gatwick 1h late. The flight went well. We were landing in Brest, close to the runway, the wheels of the aircraft were out and we could see rooftops and fields very close. Suddenly, the pilots put the gas back on and we soared up. We then spent 40 minutes turning around the airport in the air. The sky was clear with only a few clouds. We were told by the pilot that a computer onboard had technical issues and we were unable to land in Brest. We were then told our flight was diverted to Rennes airport (a 3h drive away by car). No explanation was given as to how we would be able to better land in Rennes. The flight landed in Rennes were weather was stormy (rain. wind and dark clouds). Buses were arranged for passengers, who were told it would be a 3h drive to Brest.No reason given
- They did not say anything until the scheduled departure time (7:50 PM), when they informed us there would be a delay of at least two hours. - At 9:30 PM, the new departure time was communicated as 10:45 PM, but the actual departure time was 11:10 PM. - We were not given any information about the reason for the delay. 3 Hours and 20 minutes of delay ( from scheduled departure at 19:50 to actual departure at 23:10). The airplane landed at Turin airport at 00:15 The disruption significantly impacted my plans as I arrived much later than expected. This caused inconvenience and stress.Strike
We have cancelled only 3hours before flight schedule and no another flight information or suggestions. So we have to find another flight but very hard to find it. So we have to come different airport.Strike
1) Our flight was cancelled of the strike. 2) we were supposed to take a train from Venice to Rome. We can’t go to Venice anymore but train company won’t reimburse me. 3) 99.99 cdn charged to me for a membership which was even in small print when I booked my flight and nit even sure what it was for.No reason given
We haven’t signed anything after the cancellation of the flight, they gave us vouchers 20€ for each person, and as we wanted to go somewhere for birthday we eventually went to Zagreb with the flight that was around 16:30. First when we arrived at the airport they said that the flight will be delayed for 2 hours and after an hour they cancelled the flight out of nowhere, airline refunded our flight and the vouchers given and that’s it. We had to spend more money to travel to Zagreb and back then to Athens from the flight that was 560€ and hotel was 350€. Thank you for the help in advance.Unknown

Nejprve byl let odložen (důvod nebyl udán) o hodinu, později o další hodinu, až nakonec byl boarding do letadla v 23:55 místo v 19:55. Vzhledem k tomu, že ve Florencii funguje letiště pouze do 23:00 hodin (což jsme se dozvěděly až po našem pátrání), musely nám let nasměrovat na nejbližší letiště, což v našem případě byla Verona. Ve Veroně nám byly přistavěny autobusy, které nás vezly 3 hodiny do Florencie. Ve Florencii jsme byly místo v 22:05 v 5:05 ráno další den, tudíž o 7 hodin později. Tato zkušenost byla velmi nepříjemná, jelikož na letišti nám nebylo nic oznámeno, musely jsme si to telefonicky zjišťovat na informacích letiště sami. Společnost Volotea nám poslala omluvný e-mail se směšnou kompenzací, a to voucherem 15 euro na osobu pro další let, na což jsme nereagovaly.No reason given

Refund
No reason given
The airline did not offer any compensation for the disrupted flight. They just gave me refund for my flight ticket. But that is not enough. We incurred huge extra expenses due to this issue. We had to book alternative flights and other transport options to reach a place near our final destination. We had to buy meals from our own pockets overnight. The airline did not help in any of this. I would really appreciate if the airline could AT LEAST reimburse me for these extra expenses that I had to pay for. That's the least they can do. Moreover, we missed some train connections too due to this flight cancellation. We did not include those in our claims. We at least want them to reimburse us for what we ask for, it is the bare minimum. Our flight was supposed to take off at 22.50 from Dubrovnik on 20th Jul. It first got delayed to almost 2.14 AM the next day. Then it got cancelled. We were in utter shock. We had to reach Marseille positively the next day. The only option we found from the airport that could reach us nearby was a flight to Rome. We booked that as alternate flight as Volotea didnt have any flights in the next 2 days. From Rome we had to take a train and then a bus to reach till Milan. Then from Milan, our family had to pick us up to take us to Marseille. It was a complete disaster.We booked speedy boarding and handluggage in advance
We were in row for speeding boarding but they send us back not very friendly to the normal row and then we were some of the last passengers, when we were on the boarding desk , we had to pay 130,- euro’s for our handluggage. We never travel without all this extra’s so I was so confused.Afterwards I saw in my documents that I paid for all of this. So I ask you the refund from 130,- euro and the refund speedy boarding. The people at the desk were not nice to us!. When you have priority boarding, handluggage is included! Refund

Special assistance is free. You can have two mobility support equipment and even guide and assistance dogs for no extra charge.
You can sue Volotea, but depending on the nature of the incident, it’s usually not worth it. The legal costs likely outweigh the compensation you can receive in turn.
Relative to a new airline, Volotea is reliable with no prominent major concerns.

Verified CustomerI’d like to thank Air Advisor for their help. I didn't think I’d get anything, but after two years—and with their assistance—I received compensation. Thank you very much.
Luciano Moggia
Verified CustomerI used Air Advisor for the first time and received compensation for a flight that was delayed by more than three hours. There were some difficulties with the airline, and the process took two years to complete. Air Advisor had to involve lawyers and take legal action, which reduced the compensation to 50% of the original amount, exactly as clearly explained on their website. Overall, I am satisfied with the service and believe that Air Advisor did a good job handling my case.
