European Regulation (EC) No 261/2004 is there to protect flight passengers if they have experienced a flight delay, cancellation, overbooking or any other issue that has prevented them boarding a flight they have paid for over the past 6 years, regardless of whether they have travel insurance or not.

As set out in the regulation, compensation validity and amount is determined by the three factors:

• The cause of the delay and whether that delay is subject to a compensation claim;

• The length of the flight delay;

• The distance between the two airports the flight was travelling between.

How do you know if the cause of delay entitles you to Flight Delay Compensation - 

The most common causes of flight delays that may be entitled to compensation are:

• Technical or engineering issues with the plane;

• Poor communication between the airline &the airport resulting in a delay;

• Delays caused by crew and cabin staff including the lack thereof;

• Industrial action by airline staff.

If the airline is found to be accountable for the delay, then under European Regulation (EC) No 261/2004 they will have a responsibility to pay compensation to all the passengers affected by the delay.

In some situations, you will not be eligible for flight delay compensation, such as:

• Severe weather conditions;

• Political unrest;

• Industrial action by airport staff;

• Terrorist threats or security scares;

• Delays caused by air traffic control;

• Faults with the aircraft that are outside of ‘routine’ maintenance.
