Description of your rights
A. Right to compensation
1) If your flight is cancelled or delayed by 3 or more hours or you are involuntarily
denied boarding, you are entitled to receive €600 in compensation from
us. If, however, we offer you re-routing on an alternative flight that will
arrive within four hours of the arrival time of the flight on which you were
originally booked, your compensation can be reduced to €300.
2) We will pay any compensation due under this section in cash, by prepaid
card, EFT, bank check or, with your written agreement, in a travel voucher.
B. Right to reimbursement or re-routing
1) If your flight is cancelled, you are denied boarding, or your flight is delayed
by five (5) hours or more, you are entitled to choosebetween:
a) Reimbursement within seven (7) days of the full cost of the ticket at
the price at which it was bought, for the part or parts of the journey
not made, and for the part or parts already made if the flight no longer
serves any purpose in relation to your original travel plan and, if
applicable, a return flight to the first point of departure at the earliest
opportunity; or
b) Re-routing under comparable transport conditions to your final
destination at the earliest opportunity or, at a later date at your
convenience, subject to the availability of seats.
If we offer you a flight to an airport other than that for which the
booking was made (in case the town, city or region is served by several
airports), we will pay the cost of transferring you from that alternative
airport either to that for which the booking was made or to another
close-by destination agreed withyou.
2) We will reimburse you in cash, by prepaid card, EFT, bank check or, with
your written agreement, in a travel voucher.
C. Right to Care
If you are denied boarding, your flight is cancelled, or your flight is delayed by
three (3) or more hours beyond its scheduled time ofdeparture:
a) and the expected departure time of your new flight (if any) is the same day
as the departure date of your originally ticketed flight, we offer you the
following free of charge:
• Meals and refreshments in a reasonable relation to the waiting time; and
• Two (2) telephone calls, telex or fax messages, or e-mail messages.
b) We will also offer you free of charge:
• Hotel accommodations in cases where a stay of one (1) or more nights
becomes necessary or a stay additional to that intended by you becomes
necessary; and
• Transport between the airport and place of accommodation (hotel or other)
If you are involuntarily denied boarding, or if your flight is cancelled or delayed
and the expected time of departure of the new flight is at least the day after the
departure of the originally ticketed flight.
We may limit or decline your right to care if provision of care would itself cause
furtherdelay.
Other rights not prejudiced
The foregoing rights apply without prejudice to any additional rights that you
may have to furthercompensation. Compensation described in this notice may be
deducted from such additionalcompensation.
