Frequently Asked Questions - Delays and cancellations at Marseille Provence Airport

1. Delays and cancellations at Marseille Provence Airport — can the airline deny my claim? 

Airlines have the power to refuse passengers flight compensation even if their flight left more than three hours later. The term "extraordinary circumstances" refers to situations where a third party or unforeseeable incident renders the delay or cancellation unavoidable and automatically excludes the airline from responsibility.

The following list includes a few examples of such situations:

  • 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.

2. How much time do I have to submit my flight compensation claim?

No matter the airline or your flight schedule, you have 5 years to file a claim for a flight refund and/or compensation when flying to or from France.
