Do you know your rights if Norwegian delays or cancels your flight? 

Many travellers are unaware of their rights when Norwegian fails to meet their scheduled departure. However, according to EU Regulation 261/2004, you can get a refund in several cases if your flight is delayed by 3 hours or more, cancelled, or if you are denied boarding. 

This also applies if your ticket has already been refunded - compensation is different from a refund.

Why is Norwegian delayed so often?

Norwegian is one of Europe's largest low-cost carriers and has expanded rapidly since 2002 with routes throughout Europe. But with over 100 daily departures from Scandinavia alone and tight flight scheduling, the risk of chain reactions increases when delays occur. Departures from Copenhagen Airport and Oslo Gardermoen in particular often prove to be affected. 

In 2023, thousands of Norwegian passengers were delayed for more than 3 hours - and many didn't realise they were actually entitled to compensation. 

What is the reason for the delays/cancellations from Norwegian? 

Norwegian delays can be caused by a variety of factors, including: 

  • Shortage of staff 
    Limited staffing at Norwegian, airports or air traffic control can delay boarding and departure. 

  • Airspace capacity issues 
    Busy flight seasons create bottlenecks in Europe's airspace - especially during the summer months and holidays. 

  • Bad weather conditions 
    Storms, fog and snow - especially in Scandinavia - often affect both departure and arrival times. 

  • Technical issues and maintenance 
    Unforeseen aircraft failures or lack of spare parts can mean that an aircraft has to be taken out of service. 

  • Tight schedules and chain reactions 
    Norwegian has many daily departures. A delay on one flight can quickly affect the rest of the day's schedule. 

What can we help with?

  • Delayed flight: If your Norwegian flight was delayed more than 3 hours, you may be entitled to compensation. 

  • Cancelled flight: If your Norwegian flight was cancelled and you weren't notified at least 14 days in advance, you may also be entitled to compensation. 

  • Overbooked flight: If you were denied boarding because the flight was overbooked, there may be good reason to seek compensation.
