HiSky 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.
• HiSky Cancel Flight: if HiSky 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.

HiSky Flight Cancellations: When are they Liable?

When HiSky can escape liability: HiSky 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 HiSky 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 HiSky flight compensation.

An airport employees’ strike is beyond anyone's control. Learn more about cancellation compensation.

When HiSky cannot escape liability: When HiSky 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 HiSky flight delay compensation if you arrived 3+ hours later than the scheduled arrival time of your initial flight.

HiSky 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 HiSky 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 HiSky 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.

HiSky 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 HiSky delayed flight compensation claim form to receive up to €600 as a flight refund.

Exclusions: HiSky 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.

Common questions: Compensation Claims and Refunds

What to do when your HiSky 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. Finally, use our free online compensation calculator to check if you are eligible for compensation and submit a HiSky refund for cancellation.

What if I cancel my HiSky flight? Can I get a refund?

If HiSky cancels the flight, they must refund the price of ticket to passengers. But if you decide to voluntarily cancel your scheduled flight, you are not entitled to a refund. HiSky 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 HiSky cancelled a flight due to Covid-19?

If HiSky cancelled a flight due to Covid-19, passengers are entitled to a reimbursement as part of flight cancellation rights. If HiSky 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.

Can I Get a HiSky Refund?

If you had booked a non-refundable or non-changeable fare and you had to cancel your own flight, you most likely would not be able to get a refund. However, if it was HiSky that cancelled your flight, then you would have the right to a refund as per the EU Regulation EC261.

How many hours for flight delay to be eligible for HiSky compensation?

Your HiSky flight delay of 3 hours or more at the airport of final destination may make you eligible for compensation. However, the amount of compensation may depend on the period of delay and flight distance. You can use the AirAdvisor flight delay compensation calculator to check your HiSky flight and your eligibility.

How long does it take to get HiSky flight delay compensation?

According to EC interpretation of EC 261 Regulation, airlines must pay compensation to passengers for flight disruptions within one (1) month. However, not airlines strictly comply with such regulations and it is quite common for HiSky to take up to 3 months to process claims. In some cases, HiSky may try to ignore payment requests from passengers, in which cases AirAdvisor legal team can step in to help your case.
