Flight delay and cancellation compensation, Ryanair ONLY

MaryGold

My Ryanair flight from Perpignan to Birmingham was delayed by over two hours (but under three hours).

It was due to land at around 7.30pm, which meant I could easily have got a bus or train into Birmingham city centre and then a bus or train to Worcester, where I live. But it landed at around 10pm, which meant I was stranded. I could either have stayed overnight at a hotel or got a taxi home, so I chose the taxi, because I thought that would be the cheapest option. It was £85. Do I have any right to claim this from Ryanair? Any advice would be much appreciated.

No. I would have left it at that but MSE requires that you respond with at least 10 characters.

perhaps you should have said that you didn't want a negative reply and only wanted people to post what you wanted to hear.

Nobody has been ill mannered with their replies, you just don't like them.

could you not have got any train or bus closer to your destination at that time? 10pm seems awfully early for trains or buses to stop running any service

well.....


according to the ryanair website the only arrival at that time, eta is actually 19:45, is on a Tuesday and according to googlemaps if you had arrived at BHX on a tuesday at 22:00 you would have had 30mins to get on the cross country, then on to westmidlands, train and you would have been in worcester by 23:39.


have you tried your travel insurance?

Welcome MaryGold, sorry some posters have been a little curt. I hope you find the answer to your question and stick around on the MSE forum. Although some forum members can be a little abrupt, you will generally find a helpful bunch of people on here.

Hey, the court ruling came back in my favour, and ryanair sent me an amount but it is less than it should be by about £30?

What should I do here, I do not accept this as completed, I am very upset.

On top of the first page of threads, it asks people to read before posting. This is because it is easier to keep the threads up to date and not have 10 different threads say for Ryanair.
