Check CompensationWhen can you claim compensation in a complaint letter?
According to Regulation 261/2004, air passengers may have the right to compensation for flight disruption. Any traveler may be protected by this special European law regardless of nationality or residency.
You are entitled to compensation only if your situation meets certain conditions. Here are the primary criteria depending on the flight disruption:
- Your flight was delayed: you may get flight delay compensation if your flight arrived with a delay of more than 3 hours.
- You are facing cancelled flights: the airline informed you about cancellation less than 14 days prior to departure.
- You were denied boarding: you may ask compensation unless it was your choice to give up the seat.
- You missed connection: this is usually caused due to a delayed or cancelled initial flight.
You have all the chances to get compensation for a delayed flight or other disruption if your flight:
- departs from departure airport located within the EU, or is run by the airline from the EU (location of the arrival airport does not matter for both cases)
- is disrupted due to the fault of the airline
Complaint letter airline compensation: how to claim your money?
Each airline has its own rules for compensating for the disruption. Generally, you need to send a letter to the air carrier describing what happened. This is important to provide enough evidence to leave no room for excuses and refusal from the airlines.
Here is a template letter you can use in your situation:
The airlines usually ignore the incoming mails unless written by legal parties. This will not be an issue anymore if AirAdvisor manages your case.
