At AirHelp, we think passengers deserve fair compensation when their travel plans are torn apart by flight delays or cancellations. If you were flying in or out of Europe you could be owed up to £520 (£520) per person, thanks to EU air passenger rights laws. Click below to start checking how much you're entitled to in Wideroe Airlines delay compensation and Wideroe Airlines cancellation compensation. Our expert team is ready to help you claim it.
Regardless of whether you're at home or abroad when you find out about your Wideroe Airlines flight cancellation, you're going to have a lot of questions and concerns. The first thing to know is that Wideroe Airlines should find you a new flight, or offer you a full refund.
In Europe, EC 261 protects all passengers in the event of flight cancellations, especially last-minute flight cancellations.
Passengers due to depart from a European airport are always entitled to a full refund if their flight is canceled and Wideroe Airlines can't offer an acceptable replacement. Additionally, for any Wideroe Airlines flight cancellation less than 14 days before the flight, passengers may also be eligible for Wideroe Airlines flight cancellation compensation, up to £520 per person.
That's unless there were some kind of extraordinary circumstances which gave Wideroe Airlines no choice but to cancel the flight. The law accepts that airlines should only pay compensation when they are at fault — but they must still ensure passengers reach their final destination or get a full refund for the flight.
Airlines like Wideroe Airlines also don't need to pay compensation if they're able to offer an alternative flight that arrives at a very similar time to the original one. The specific time limits are included in our flight cancellation compensation guide.
