Ever been stranded at the airport due to a flight cancellation or long delay? It disrupts your travel plans, eats into your precious vacation time, and leaves you feeling frustrated. But what if we told you that you might be entitled to compensation under EU regulations?
Here at Fair Flights, we're passionate about empowering air passengers. That's why we're diving deep into EC 261, the European regulation that outlines your rights as a passenger when faced with flight disruptions.
Understanding EC 261
EC 261 applies to flights departing from an EU airport or arriving at an EU airport with an EU airline. It covers three main scenarios:
Denied Boarding: If you're denied boarding involuntarily (not due to security reasons or improper travel documents), you may be eligible for compensation between €250 and €600 depending on the flight distance.
Cancelled Flights: If your flight is cancelled by the airline less than 14 days before departure, you may be entitled to compensation ranging from €250 to €600 based on distance. You'll also be offered re-routing or a full refund.
Flight Delays: For delays exceeding 3 hours upon arrival at your final destination, you might be eligible for compensation depending on the distance. The amount varies (€250 to €600) and may be reduced if the airline offered re-routing that arrived within a certain timeframe.
