This method is particularly useful if you are filing a compensation claim based on Regulation EU 261. Under these rules, you could get up to €600 for flights delayed by at least 3 hours at your final destination as long as you are flying to, from, or within the EU. 

Also, the Montreal Convention requires airlines to pay passengers up to €1,599 for mishandled baggage.

Booked a direct flight from NYC to Madeira on Azores Air; we booked with SATA precisely because of this direct flight. 2 days prior to our departure, we received an email with no mention of schedule change. The email merely indicated that our ticket is attached. Opening the attached PDF we saw that this was a new itinerary that leaves at night instead of the original morning, and connecting via Lisbon instead of a direct flight. This caused us to miss a booked night at our hotel costing 604 euros. There was no explanation. We tried calling all the customer service numbers for the US and Portugal (long distance for us) and waited an hour but nobody picked up our call. We had no choice but to leave on the flight that was rebooked for us, hence arriving the next day in the afternoon, Our hotel of course would still charge us for this night and our plans that day had to be cancelled. We sent an email to the airline later asking for compensation but have not heard back. It has been almost 5 months since we sent that email. Case number CAS-185477-T0G4K9 SATA0000001008998

We have made an attempt to contact Sata 3 times now its just over 2 months time. This was our initial convo Hello, I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to request a Delay Certificate for myself (Allison Tsang) and my partner (Wincent Tang). Yesterday, we were re-booked from two flights on Azores Airlines due to a severe delay for the first flight, which would have caused us to miss the connection to our second flight. We were re-booked by Azores Airlines to two flights on TAP Air Portugal, departing from Porto much later than originally expected. I’ve detailed the original flight information below. The flight from Porto to Ponta Delgado was 3 hours and 25 minutes delayed. Azores Airlines Booking Reference #: U2Q0LY Flight #: S40171 Departure Date: September 25, 2024 Original Departure Time: 12:35 PM Delayed Departure Time: 4:00 PM From: Porto (OPO) To: Ponta Delgada (PDL) Azores Airlines Booking Reference #: U2Q0LY Flight #: S40323 Departure Date: September 25, 2024 Departure Time: 4:50 PM From: Ponta Delgada (PDL) To: Toronto (YYZ) As per your policy, I am attaching a copy of our passports as identification documents for verification. The purpose of the Delay Certificate request is to provide proof of the flight delay for relevant authorities and to justify the changes made to my itinerary. Please confirm receipt of this request and do not hesitate to let us know if any further details are required to receive the Delay Certificate. I look forward to your prompt response. Best regards, Allison Tsang allison.tsang@gmail.com +1 (647) 878-7459 They have not gotten back to us after our third follow up.

This cancellation meant we missed a connecting flight with the same airline back to London the following morning. We should have arrived at our final destination 12.35pm on the 4-6-24 but didn’t make it till 9.30am 5-6-24. The airline told us this was due to weather issues and other flights being cancelled. The airline provided accommodation on Sao Jorge 3-4-24 but would not provide accommodation in Lisbon (where we had to have a night layover) 4-4-24. This caused me to miss 1/2 day of work.

Our flight was delay over 8 hours from FNC Madeira to Boston. We arrived at the airport prior to 6am for our flight. After passing security and getting to the gate, we were told that our flight would be delayed 2 hours. After waiting those two hours, we were told that the flight would be delayed another 2 hours. We asked staff for food and beverage compensation, but we were turned away from an associate at the desk and told there was none available and that there would not be any type of customer care provided. After we waited the additional 2 hours (4 hours total at this point) we were told that the flight would be delayed an additional 4 hours. We spent 80EUR on food and beverage during the entirety of our stay at the airport for 2 adults. Because our flight was delayed by so long our scheduled pickup from the Boston airport could not accommodate so we had to book a ride share for 65USD. We arrived at our final destination around 9pm EST.

I had a room booked for the 26th of Sept after I would have landed with my original flight, but I lost that reservation. Invoice was attached. The flight they rebooked me to only arrived the next morning, and I had to change in Lisbon instead of a non-stop flight. This is so much worse than what I originally paid for, please help to get my money back. Thank you.

The airline would not book me a hotel in Lisbon despite knowing I would miss my connecting flight, which was particularly stressful. I've tried to get compensation via their website and it has been impossible to get any response from them. I arrived at my final destination the day after I was meant to due to my flight to Lisbon being delayed and me then missing my connection to Manchester. This meant I had to stay overnight in Lisbon, which cost me money in order to pay for a hotel and have dinner.
