Flight delay compensation

If you're claiming compensation for a flight delay and want to discuss it with other MoneySavers, here's the place.

Company claiming commission
Hi, sorry for beginning a new thread as I don't have a clue where this would lie. I claimed compensation via a company called GIVT for a delayed flight last August in September 2019. This was taking a while so I took it upon myself to claim via easyJet themselves, something which I didn't know you could do beforehand and…
Ukraine International cancellation without telling us
*sorry can this be moved to the correct section* Hi all, I had a flight booked through Ukraine International Airways (UIA) for Kraków-Kiev for 4 people, it cost $38 each when booked many months ago.

Can "Force Majeure" apply in anticipation? (Easyjet flight cancelled 2 days before storm)
Easyjet recently cancelled our flights two days in advance due to Storm Dennis. Funnily enough, they didn't cancel all flights, many other flights that ran a similar route were still running as normal, and indeed most flights from Gatwick were uninterrupted. The weather reports at the time show perfect weather at our…
Ryanair - where to send small claims court claim now we are not in EU given Ryanair are based in Ire
I have complained to Ryainair direct and they offered me £186 when I was out of pocket by over £1200 due to flight cancellation leading to accommodation and other costs for two days. I have complained to Portuguese CAA (flight was from Faro to BHX) with no response at all. I want to put in a small claim to the courts.…
Lufthansa Flight Cancelled
My family and I had our flight from Munich to Dublin cancelled on Sat 8th Feb. Lufthansa said it was cancelled due to weather conditions in Dublin (only 4 out of 250 flights due to land in Dublin that day where cancelled, 3 of the 4 where Lufthansa). Lufthansa arranged for us to fly to Heathrow and get a connecting flight…
Diverted flight due to unruly passengers
Hi Martin and all I was recently on a flight from Gatwick to Mexico. We were delayed on arrival in Mexico for practically a day as we had to stop in Winnipeg to allow two passengers to be arrested for unruly behaviour. TUI have said that we are not eligible for any compensation as it was extenuating circumstances. Any…
CEDR Result
I couldn't find much information about going down the CEDR route so though I'd post my experience. I had been going round in circles with easyJet for a year and a half trying to claim for a delayed flight. I put in a claim with CEDR (all online), I had to enter name, flight details and what the claim was for. I also…
EasyJet Flight Cancellation - Recovering Cost of Using Another Airline
Sorry if any of this is repeated but I'm getting desperate, EasyJet flight cancelled from Rome to Bristol because of the storm. I got no notification from the airline, it was only when I was wandering round the colosseum that the taxi firm texted me to tell me flight was cancelled. This was at about 1pm & was due to fly at…
Where to start
I’ve read the notes but unsure where to start, who to claim from or which reason to claim. I did take out a basic insurance policy which says £300 limit for delay plus there’s an excess - we were booked to fly B’ham to Dublin 8am last Sunday 9th and got there at 6am and although the weather was awful our flight was showing…
Combined delay compensation? Cancelled Flight (delay of +4 hrs) + Delayed Flight (delay of 2 hrs+)
Hi If my original (EU) flight was cancelled due to bad weather (no compensation due) AND My replacement (EU) flight 3 days later was also delayed by 2hrs & 8mins due to mechanical failure (compensation due) Would the delay from my cancelled flight combine with the the delay on my replacement flight and entitle me to claim…

Extraordinary Circumstances - TUI
