How much compensation can I get for a delayed flight?

Under EU Regulation 261/2004, you can receive €250 for flights under 1,500km, €400 for flights between 1,500-3,500km, and €600 for flights over 3,500km.

Question 2

What flights are eligible for EU261 compensation?

Accepted Answer

Flights departing from any EU airport, or flights arriving in the EU on an EU-based airline. The flight must have been delayed by 3+ hours, cancelled, or you were denied boarding.

Question 3

How long does the compensation process take?

Accepted Answer

Most claims are resolved within 6-12 weeks. Some airlines respond faster, while others may require legal action which can take longer.

Question 4

What does "No Win, No Fee" mean?

Accepted Answer

You pay nothing upfront. AirRight only charges a success fee (25% or 15% with Early Bird promotion) if we successfully recover your compensation. If the claim is unsuccessful, you owe nothing.
