Did you have a Widerøe flight cancelled, a long delay, or problems with your Widerøe ticket? If so, you may well be entitled to Widerøe compensation under European legislation EC 261/2004. Widerøe is the largest regional airline in Scandinavia, operating flights from Norway to destinations in Scandinavia and Western Europe. If your Widerøe flight arrived more than 3 hours late, was cancelled, or you were denied boarding, you can claim compensation of up to €600.
You can file a compensation claim if you experienced one of the following situations:
Widerøe flight cancelled without at least 14 days' notice
Delayed Widerøe flight that arrived at the destination more than 3 hours late
Widerøe flight change that affected your journey
Denied boarding due to overbooking
Missed connection due to a Widerøe flight delay
These situations occur frequently with cancelled Widerøe flights, cancelled Widerøe routes, or when a Widerøe flight cancellation occurs for operational reasons.
Depending on the case, you are entitled to one or more of the following options:
Refund of your Widerøe plane ticket
An alternative flight to your final destination
Cash compensation from Widerøe under European legislation
€250 — flights under 1,500 km
€400 — flights between 1,500 and 3,500 km
€600 — flights over 3,500 km
If you accepted an alternative flight that arrived only 2–4 hours later, the amount may be reduced by 50%.

Yes. Norway is part of the European Economic Area (EEA) and has adopted Regulation EC 261/2004 into national legislation. Therefore, Widerøe flights departing from Norway or from the EU/EEA benefit from the same compensation rights as in the EU.
Yes. Regulation EC 261/2004 makes no distinction based on the type or size of the aircraft. The right to compensation depends solely on the duration of the delay/cancellation and the flight distance, not on the number of seats or the type of aircraft.
Extreme weather conditions (blizzards, dense fog, ice on the runway) may be considered extraordinary circumstances and may exempt the airline from financial compensation. However, Widerøe must prove that the situation was exceptional and could not be avoided. A ticket refund remains mandatory in any case.
The process is entirely online through AirClaim. You do not need to travel to Norway or communicate directly with the Norwegian aviation authority. AirClaim manages all communication with Widerøe and, if necessary, legal escalation in Norway — all at no upfront cost to you.
