Cancelled AlbaStar flight — when can I get a refund and compensation?

It depends on the exact circumstances surrounding your AlbaStar cancellation. In some cases, you will be eligible only for compensation, in others only for a refund, and in some, you can claim both AlbaStar compensation and an AlbaStar refund!

 

When can I claim compensation for my cancelled AlbaStar flight?

If the cancellation of your flight was announced less than 14 days before the initial departure date, you might be able to claim flight compensation for it.

Keep in mind that in order for you to be eligible for compensation, AlbaStar must be the party at fault for the disruption. See the “Extraordinary Circumstances” section of this article to learn more.

 

When can I claim a refund for my cancelled AlbaStar flight

  • You were not offered an alternative flight

  • You were offered an alternative flight but decided not to take it

I was flying with AlbaStar to a non-EU country. Can I still claim compensation?

Yes, you can! Even if you fly to a non-EU country, you are covered by the EU flight compensation rules, since AlbaStar’s headquarters are in Madrid, Spain. 

For instance, if you were flying with AlbaStar to Egypt or Senegal, you can still claim compensation for a disrupted flight. 

However, the situation might be different in the event that your flight was operated by a non-EU airline. Please check the table below to learn more.

Extraordinary circumstances — can AlbaStar deny me compensation?

If the disruption was caused by a third party or force majeure — and therefore it is not the airline’s fault — AlbaStar is not obliged to pay compensation. These situations are called extraordinary circumstances.

Some of the most common extraordinary circumstances are:
 

  • Bad weather conditions, such as thick fog, heavy rain, or thunderstorms.

  • A strike, most often specifically within the aviation industry (for example, a strike of air traffic control workers at a specific airport).

    However, a strike of the airline's crew is not considered an extraordinary circumstance!

  • Political circumstances, such as a terrorist attack or general security risk due to political unrest.

  • Natural disasters, including volcanic eruptions and hurricanes.

  • A collision between the aircraft and birds or other foreign objects.

  • An ill or unruly passenger.

  • Flight delays caused by the airport staff, such as extraordinarily long queues to security checks.

 

Be aware though that airlines sometimes say that extraordinary circumstances occurred even if that was not the case. They do it in an attempt to avoid paying out the compensation to passengers.
