Avanti Air Flight Compensation Claims

As a passenger, you may be entitled to compensation if the following have occurred:

  • Flight delay: If your flight arrived 3+ hours late at your final destination.
  • Avanti Air Cancel Flight: if Avanti Air cancelled your flight and informed you less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: If you have been denied boarding due to overbooking.
  • Missed connecting flight: If you missed a connecting flight due to a delay in one of the legs and you arrived at your destination 3+ hours late.

 

Avanti Air Flight Cancellations: When are they Liable?

When Avanti Air can escape liability: Avanti Air claims if a flight was cancelled due to events outside of its control; for example bad weather, or issues at the airport. Such events are typically called extraordinary circumstances and in such cases, you are not entitled to a Avanti Air missed flight refund.

All airlines will generally try to book you on the next available flight at no additional charge, in the case of cancelled flights. You may agree to the proposed flight or request another replacement flight, or demand reimbursement if you are not happy with any of the options proposed.

Note: If your rebooked scheduled departure arrives at a similar time to your original departure time, you're not entitled compensation. The law is fair and allows airlines not to pay compensation if you can reach your destination with minimum inconvenience. In most cases, passengers who have a cancelled flight will have valid claims for a Avanti Air flight compensation.

An airport employees’ strike is beyond anyone's control. Learn more about cancellation compensation.

When Avanti Air cannot escape liability: When Avanti Air cancel flights, EU 261 Regulation on air passenger rights are clear: You must be put on an alternative flight or provided with a full flight refund.

Also, if you were notified about the flight cancellation less than 14 days before your date of departure, you may be able to receive up to €600 per person in compensation. Additionally, you may receive Avanti Air flight delay compensation if you arrived 3+ hours later than the scheduled arrival time of your initial flight.

Avanti Air Flight Refund policy

A flight compensation and a refund are two different things. Regulations allow you to receive both: a cancellation refund and compensation.

In case of a cancellation, an airline will try to re-book you on the similar flight, but if that becomes impossible, a cancellation refund will be a full cash refund. Generally, your claim would succeed, providing there were no extraordinary circumstances beyond airline control.

If Avanti Air cancels your flight to extraordinary circumstances (such as Covid travel restrictions or a serious illness) and you were offered no replacement flight, you can obtain a ticket refund in full, since your flights booked were not available.

Types of ticket refunds: A full refund must be in cash or credit. Vouchers are allowed only if you specifically agree to it. We do not recommend accepting vouchers due to short expiry dates and potential restrictions on redemption.

Note: If Avanti Air offers a replacement flight with approximately the same arrival time and you decide not to take it, there is a possibility of you losing the right to get both compensation and a ticket refund. 

Rule of thumb: you can generally reject alternative flights and receive a refund in full, if a new replacement flight arrives 3+ hours later from your initial scheduled arrival time.

Avanti Air Flight Delay Compensation

While all airlines attempt to operate on time, sometimes delays happen. EU regulation 261 (EU 261) protects passengers in cases of flight delays.

According to EC 261, if your flight arrives later than 3 hours at your final destination, you may be eligible to file a Avanti Air delayed flight compensation claim form to receive up to €600 as a flight refund.

Exclusions: Avanti Air delayed flight compensation will not be enforceable in case of extraordinary circumstances. If the flight departure time is delayed because of bad weather or any airport related disruption, that is considered an extraordinary circumstance. Technical problems, airline staff strike, or operational problems are not valid reasons for rejected compensation claims.

Tip: accepting vouchers or signing release paperwork will result in losing the right to compensation.

Avanti Air refund for strike : When Can I Claim?

Whenever Avanti Air employees decide to go on strike whilst this action results in flight operations being impaired or disabled, the airline must pay compensation for its actions and caused inconvenience.

That ultimately gives us the most important question to ask -- Who is on a strike? Is it the Avanti Air airline, and their own staff? Once it is validated that the flight operator, in this case Avanti Air, is at fault, the onus to compensate passengers for any cancelled or delayed flights caused as a result of the strike action is, thanks to EU regulation 261, on them -- under the following circumstances:

  • You had a flight disrupted by a Avanti Air cabin crew (employee) strike.
  • Your flight was delayed for 3 or more hours or cancelled less than 14 days before it was due to depart.
  • You had a confirmed flight reservation.
  • The disruption has happened in a space of the past 3 years.
  • If you were given an alternative flight and your arrival time was remarkably different from the original supposed arrival.
  • In case of an undue event of denied boarding.

See if you are owed compensation with ease and fill out your flight details in our compensation checker right now.

“From the passenger’s point of view, the main concern is the strike’s origin that causes flight disruption”. “Airport and airline employees can be separated by two groups: airport ground handling staff and workers under the airline itself.”

If your refund claim is rejected, AirAdvisor can help enforce your claim through our external lawyers.

If you have chosen a non-flexible fare option and had to cancel your own flight, chances are that you will not be able to receive any reimbursement, except for airport taxes and fees.
