PASSENGER PROTECTION

Air Passenger Rights

Every year, millions of passengers face flight disruptions, yet surprisingly, 75% remain unaware of their legal rights to compensation. Whether you're flying from London to Paris or Manchester to New York, robust regulations protect your journey. These protective frameworks, primarily UK261 and EC261, ensure airlines maintain high standards of service and provide appropriate compensation when things go wrong.

COVERAGE

Which Flights Are Protected?

Your flight compensation rights depend on your departure point, destination, and airline. Here's a comprehensive breakdown of your coverage:

Flights Within or From the UK and EU

When departing from any UK or EU airport, you're protected regardless of the airline you're flying with. This coverage extends to all passengers, ensuring comprehensive protection for your journey. For flights arriving in the UK or EU, you're covered when flying with UK-based or EU-based airlines respectively.

Coverage at a Glance

For maximum transparency, here's exactly when you're protected:

  • From inside the UK/EU to inside UK/EU:

    Protected on all airlines

  • From inside UK/EU to outside:

    Protected on all airlines

  • From outside to UK/EU:

    Protected only on UK/EU airlines

  • Outside UK/EU to outside UK/EU:

COMPENSATION RIGHTS

Your Rights When Things Go Wrong

Flight Delays

When your flight arrives more than 3 hours late, you could be entitled to:

  • For flights up to 1,500 km: £220 compensation

  • For flights 1,500-3,500 km: £350 compensation

  • For flights over 3,500 km: £520 compensation

During extended delays, airlines must also provide: Essential refreshments and meals, hotel accommodation for overnight delays, transport between the airport and hotel, and communication facilities to keep in touch with loved ones.

Flight Cancellations

Airlines must offer you a choice between: A full refund of your ticket, an alternative flight to your destination, and additional compensation if you weren't notified at least 14 days in advance.

Denied Boarding

If you're bumped from your flight due to overbooking, you're entitled to immediate compensation ranging from £220 to £520, depending on your flight distance. Plus, the airline must offer you either a refund or an alternative flight.

When Claims Don't Apply

Sometimes, disruptions occur due to extraordinary circumstances beyond the airline's control. These typically include:

  • Severe weather conditions affecting flight safety

  • Political unrest or security risks

  • Air traffic control strikes

  • Unexpected technical problems affecting flight safety
