Extraordinary circumstances — can Air France Hop deny me compensation?

Air France Hop maintains the right to withhold compensation if a third party or a case of force majeure was to blame for the delay or cancellation. These events fall under the category of extraordinary circumstances.

Some of the most common extraordinary circumstances are as follows:

  • 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.

However, be aware that airlines may declare that extraordinary circumstances occurred even when they did not. They do this to avoid being obliged to pay compensation.
