  • So Vueling have not just changed the time of my flight they have changed the date....this has meant I have incurred extra costs for additional accomodation and an additional connecting flight......can I claim compensation for these additional costs due to Vueling bringing my flight forward by 24hrs??

    Has the flight number changed at all?

    Is there an alternative flight with a different airline similar to your original plans?
    If you're new. read The FAQ and Vauban's Guide

    The alleged Ringleader.........
  • Flight number is the same.......simply moved by 24hrs from Saturday 30th march to Friday 29th......has cost me a small fortune to change connecting flights and other travel/accomodation plans
  • Moved from Saturday 30th to Friday 29th........must be some sort of claim against Vueling re the additional expense this has cost me? We are going to Barcelona for the football only now a day earlier
  • Unfortunately no......I spent a good while looking at other options

    Were these booked separately? If you want more specific advice you need to post the details of what you booked (including routing and dates) and how you booked it.

    Hi,

    I recently made a claim under the!EC Regulation 261/2004 for a delayed flight with Brussels airline. Quick summary:!!

    Flight number: SN 2048!
    Departure airport: BHX!
    Scheduled departure time: Thu 7/03/19 17:30!
    Arrival airport: Leonardo da Vinci International Airport, FCO
    Actual Arrival into Brussels: 01h15 on 8th March.!
    We were handed £10 food voucher at BHX and were put up in a hotel overnight in Brussels and given tickets leaving on the first flight to Rome.

    Brussels airline has said they will reimburse me €400 In line with Regulation (EC) No 261/2004, but will not reimburse me for the hotel and tour, the cost of which is:!

    Hotel - £358.28
    Tour - £80.65

    What are my rights? What's the next course of action. I have provided them with invoices/proof of payment for both of these.

    Any assistance/advice will be greatly appreciated.

    Can you not claim these of your travel insurance?
