BA 31 Flight Delayed: Compensation

If your British Airways flight BA 31 departing London heading to Hong Kong got delayed, you may be eligible for compensation for a flight delay, which depends on circumstances of a flight disruption. Regulation EU EC261/ 2004 is a European Union regulation that mandates the right to compensation for flight delay inconvenience and lost time for every passenger affected regardless of ticket price and if somebody else paid for tickets.

However, the EU Regulation does not require British Airways to pay compensation for minor delays less than 3 hours. Eligibility criteria for valid compensation claim requires that your flight BA 31 must arrive in Hong Kong at least 3 hours late. The distance between Hong Kong and London is the one of the major factors that influences the amount of compensation that you might be able to claim for your flight BA 31.

Tip: If Hong Kong is not your final destination, the amount of compensation must be calculated based on the distance between the point of your original departure: London and your ultimate final destination if both flights are booked under the same reservation.

To make sure you don’t miss a chance to claim compensation, our system allows you to instantly check your flight BA 31 eligibility and determine the correct amount of compensation due to you. It is free to check your flight.

Technology developed by our team from AirAdvisor allows you to check eligibility of your claim for flight BA 31 compensation and to determine the accurate amount of compensation payable by British Airways. Make sure to use our free flight checker not to miss out on your compensation claim.

BA 31 Flight Cancelled: Compensation

Depending on your case circumstances, you may be up for a claim of 600 € if your flight BA 31 from London bound to Hong Kong was cancelled. European Union Regulation EC 261/2004 ensures for every paid passenger the right to compensation of up to €600 for the time lost and inconvenience caused by British Airways flight cancellation.

The law says that your flight BA 31 must be delayed upon arrival at your final destination by 2 hours or more for British Airways to be liable to pay compensation to you.

BA 31 Flight Cancelled: Right to Claim a Refund

British Airways is responsible to honour your refund request for the price of flight ticket and to reimburse passengers for any additional out of pocket expenses incurred as a result of flight BA 31 cancellation. If you arranged and paid for a rebooking of an alternative flight, British Airways shall compensate any such expenses. British Airways shall also cover reasonable costs of a temporary hotel stay in case of overnight delay.

It is important to properly track all expenses and keep originals of all receipts. This would be required by lawyers to build up a legal case. Our professional team has experience handling such claims against British Airways. Airlines tend to disregard complaints filed by passengers without legal representation, however British Airways take our complaints more seriously as we have strong legal expertise and strong legal support to resolve those cases in courts if needed.

Our team recommends you to avoid accepting airline vouchers in lieu of a ticket refund, as British Airways vouchers or credits typically have a lot of limitations and a short validity period without option of extension. Airlines often insist on offering passengers to accept vouchers, because British Airways knows well that most passengers will not use vouchers.
