Nouvelair 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.
  • Nouvelair Cancel Flight: if Nouvelair cancelled your flight and informed you less than 14 days before departure.
  • Seats overbooked: 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.

 

Nouvelair Flight Cancellations: When are they Liable?

When Nouvelair can escape liability: Nouvelair 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 Nouvelair 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 Nouvelair flight compensation.

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

When Nouvelair cannot escape liability: When Nouvelair 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 Nouvelair flight delay compensation if you arrived 3+ hours later than the scheduled arrival time of your initial flight.

Nouvelair 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 Nouvelair 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 Nouvelair 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.

Nouvelair 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 Nouvelair delayed flight compensation claim form to receive up to €600 as a flight refund.

Exclusions: Nouvelair 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.

The airline didn’t attend us until the last very moment offering a sandwich from a store with a 7 euros voucher. When we went with the worker of the airline the voucher didn’t work. So the company didn’t give us anything to compensate, not even in the plane. The worker explained there were many accumulated delays and that’s why it affected us. The pilot in the other hand said it was due to “technical reasons”. Having different versions. La compañía no nos dio nada. Nos ofreció un empleado acompañarle para canjear un cupón de 7 euros en una tienda para coger un bocadillo. Dicho cupón no funcionaba y no nos dieron nada tampoco en el avión. El empleado nos indicó que el retraso se debía a otros retrasos acumulados. El piloto dio otra versión, que se debía a “problemas técnicos”. Dando dos versiones distintas.

When I learned that the flight was canceled two days in advance, I made a long phone call before getting through, and successfully changed to a new flight, that is, the flight on May 6. My original flight was on May 7. I arrived in Tunisia a day earlier, and the extra cost was an extra night's room.

What time did you arrive at your final destination? 3AM What did the airline tell you, and when? Nothing until we received a gate, then that the incoming flight from Tunis was delayed. What care did the airline provide, if any? How did the incident inconvenience you? Did you miss an event or lose money? Missed a rehearsal dinner for a wedding
