When can I claim back money for a delay?
To qualify, passengers simply have to have experienced a flight delay of more than three hours in the past six years within the EU.
You can also claim if your flight is cancelled or has been overbooked by the airline.
How much money can I claim back?
The compensation you are owed is fixed, regardless of your flight cos.
The amount of compensation you are entitled to is dependent on the length of your delay and the distance of your flight.
You will receive a fixed amount between €250 (around £200) and €600 (around £480) dependent on these variables. This compensation should come on top of other extra entitlements, such as meals and refreshments, and, if applicable, overnight accommodation.
