Delayed Flight Compensation

Flight Delay Compensation: Know Your Rights

When You're Entitled to Compensation

If your flight is delayed or canceled, you may be entitled to compensation from the airline. In the European Union, you're entitled to compensation if your flight is delayed by more than three hours. The amount of compensation you receive depends on the distance of your flight and the length of the delay. In the United States, you're entitled to compensation if your flight is delayed by more than two hours.

What to Do If Your Flight Is Delayed

If your flight is delayed, you should contact the airline immediately. The airline will be able to provide you with assistance, such as a refund, a new flight, or a hotel room. You should also keep all of your receipts and documentation, so that you can file a claim for compensation later on.

How to File a Claim for Compensation

You can file a claim for compensation online or by mail. You will need to provide the airline with your flight information, your contact information, and a copy of your receipts. The airline will then review your claim and determine whether you are entitled to compensation. If you are approved for compensation, you will receive a check or a credit to your account.
