Danish Air Transport Flight Compensation Claims

As a passenger, you may be entitled to compensation if the following have occurred:

  • Flight delay: If your flight arrived 3+ hours late at your final destination.
  • Danish Air Transport Cancel Flight: if Danish Air Transport cancelled your flight and informed you less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: If you have been denied boarding due to overbooking.
  • Missed connecting flight: If you missed a connecting flight due to a delay in one of the legs and you arrived at your destination 3+ hours late.

 

Danish Air Transport Flight Cancellations: When are they Liable?

When Danish Air Transport can escape liability: Danish Air Transport claims if a flight was cancelled due to events outside of its control; for example bad weather, or issues at the airport. Such events are typically called extraordinary circumstances and in such cases, you are not entitled to a Danish Air Transport missed flight refund.

All airlines will generally try to book you on the next available flight at no additional charge, in the case of cancelled flights. You may agree to the proposed flight or request another replacement flight, or demand reimbursement if you are not happy with any of the options proposed.

Note: If your rebooked scheduled departure arrives at a similar time to your original departure time, you're not entitled compensation. The law is fair and allows airlines not to pay compensation if you can reach your destination with minimum inconvenience. In most cases, passengers who have a cancelled flight will have valid claims for a Danish Air Transport flight compensation.

When Danish Air Transport cannot escape liability: When Danish Air Transport cancel flights, EU 261 Regulation on air passenger rights are clear: You must be put on an alternative flight or provided with a full flight refund.

Also, if you were notified about the flight cancellation less than 14 days before your date of departure, you may be able to receive up to €600 per person in compensation. Additionally, you may receive Danish Air Transport flight delay compensation if you arrived 3+ hours later than the scheduled arrival time of your initial flight.

Danish Air Transport Flight Refund policy

A flight compensation and a refund are two different things. Regulations allow you to receive both: a cancellation refund and compensation.

In case of a cancellation, an airline will try to re-book you on the similar flight, but if that becomes impossible, a cancellation refund will be a full cash refund. Generally, your claim would succeed, providing there were no extraordinary circumstances beyond airline control.

If Danish Air Transport cancels your flight to extraordinary circumstances (such as Covid travel restrictions or a serious illness) and you were offered no replacement flight, you can obtain a ticket refund in full, since your flights booked were not available.

Types of ticket refunds: A full refund must be in cash or credit. Vouchers are allowed only if you specifically agree to it. We do not recommend accepting vouchers due to short expiry dates and potential restrictions on redemption.

Note: If Danish Air Transport offers a replacement flight with approximately the same arrival time and you decide not to take it, there is a possibility of you losing the right to get both compensation and a ticket refund. 

Rule of thumb: you can generally reject alternative flights and receive a refund in full, if a new replacement flight arrives 3+ hours later from your initial scheduled arrival time.

Danish Air Transport Flight Delay Compensation

While all airlines attempt to operate on time, sometimes delays happen. EU regulation 261 (EU 261) protects passengers in cases of flight delays.

According to EC 261, if your flight arrives later than 3 hours at your final destination, you may be eligible to file a Danish Air Transport delayed flight compensation claim form to receive up to €600 as a flight refund.

Exclusions: Danish Air Transport delayed flight compensation will not be enforceable in case of extraordinary circumstances. If the flight departure time is delayed because of bad weather or any airport related disruption, that is considered an extraordinary circumstance. Technical problems, airline staff strike, or operational problems are not valid reasons for rejected compensation claims.

Tip: accepting vouchers or signing release paperwork will result in losing the right to compensation.

What to do when your Danish Air Transport flight is cancelled?

Confirm the reason for a flight cancellation with the airline ticket desk. Also, collect receipts for any additional expenses for reimbursement later. Ask the airline to provide food and refreshments for a delay of 3 hours or more. If your replacement flight is departing the next day, the airline must provide hotel accommodation and transportation.

What if I cancel my Danish Air Transport flight? Can I get a refund?

Danish Air Transport cancellation policy is restrictive, unless you have a flexible fare, which allows you to reschedule your flight to a later date with minimal cost.

Note: regardless of ticket type, passengers have the right to request a refund amount for airport taxes and fees as part of a cancellation refund.

Do I also get my money back for the Danish Air Transport cancelled a flight due to Covid-19?

If Danish Air Transport cancelled a flight due to Covid-19, passengers are entitled to a reimbursement as part of flight cancellation rights. If Danish Air Transport attempts to reimburse your cancelled flight with a voucher, we do not recommend taking it. Instead, apply for a refund. If your refund claim is rejected, AirAdvisor can help enforce your claim through our external lawyers.

Don't expect a refund if you cancel your own flight but didn't book a flexible, refundable fare. However, should Danish Air Transport decide to cancel your flight due to unforeseen circumstances, you shall eligible for a refund.

Your Danish Air Transport flight must be delayed for 3 hours or more at the airport of final destination to make your potentially eligible for compensation up to 600 EURO. The rules for calculating delay and compensation can be intricate, and factors such as the duration of delay and flight distance may come into play. Use the AirAdvisor flight delay compensation calculator to check your Danish Air Transport flight's eligibility.

The EU261 law mandates that compensation for flight delays must be paid within a month, but Danish Air Transport commonly takes 2-3 months to verify and pay out claims.
