Plane delay compensation
Plane delay compensation claims are now approved by the Supreme Court. Delayed plane compensation could lead up to £thousands for families or groups going on holiday. A full refund can be obtained so don’t be left out of pocket – make sure you know your rights! You’re protected by the Denied Boarding Regulation if you’re flying with an EU based airline, or a non-EU airline flying from an EU airport.

What is the Denied Boarding Regulation?
The regulation states that the airline has an obligation to offer you assistance if your plane delay is expected to go beyond a certain point. If you’re travelling with a non-EU based airline flying from a non-EU destination, the airline doesn’t have the same duty to look after you, so you cannot make a plane delay compensation claim.
The Denied Boarding Regulations applies if:
• You have a confirmed booking.
• You checked in on time, or if no check-in time was given, then at least 45 minutes before your flight was scheduled to depart.
• You’re departing from an EU airport.
