BA 359 Flight Delayed: Compensation

If your British Airways flight BA 359 departing Lyon heading to London 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 359 must arrive in London at least 3 hours late. The distance between London and Lyon is the one of the major factors that influences the amount of compensation that you might be able to claim for your flight BA 359.

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

BA 359 Flight Compensation: My Passenger Rights and What To Do

BA 359 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 359 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.
