If your flight was delayed, cancelled, re-routed or even if you were denied boarding you may be entitled to get compensation of up to €600 (of £510) per passenger under new EU law. Each year millions of passengers suffer delays and cancellations. Under this EU law you can now get compensation. It’s quick and easy and you can get compensation back as far as 6 years Did your flight:
  • Get delayed for more than 3 hours
  • Depart from an EU airport, regardless of the airline OR arrives at an EU airport but departed from a non-EU airport, providing the airline you flew with are based in the EU
  • Depart within the last 6 years
