Compensation for delayed flights Discussion Area

Does any one know how you find out when a flight was delayed. A few years back I was on a Newcastle to Stansted flight with EasyJet which was delayed. I am not sure how long for and did not keep details at the time as I was unaware compensation would be available.

Hi

I have a flight from Punta Cana (Dominican Republic) delayed over 3 hours in 2009.

Only problem is, it states in the template letter to detail everyone in the party in the booking. It was my and my ex, however I don't talk to him anymore, haven't spoken or seen him in over a year, don't know where he lives or anything. Do I still have to include him? The booking was with Thomson and it was made in his name.

Thanks

Megan

I travelled with "British Jet" from Leeds /Bradford airport about 6 yrs ago to Malta & the flight was delayed by 6 hours due to airline parts needed!!.The British Jet company finished in 2008.Do you know if I can still claim?

Hi,

I tried to use http://www.flightstats.co.uk to check flight details from Jun 2010. It says it only works for US or Canada. I clicked in flights ->on-time performance rating.

Do I need to click somewhere different?

Thanks,

Hi,
I have a question. I was delayed on a flight for about 14 hours in 2006, however the airline no lo get exists, does that mean I can't claim?

We travelled to the maldives in june 2006 and were delayed 14 hours. We flew from either gatwick or heathrow and i know the date we travelled as we had our visa stamped but not bringing up anything on flight stats but not sure why as we are 100% on dates etc

One last silly question, but my flights were with Thomson, do I send my claim to their customer complaints address which is

After Travel Customer Support
Thomson Holiday Complaints Department
Wigmore House
Wigmore Lane
Luton
LU2 9TN
?? Thankyou!

Also, the table is not clear, I travelled over 3500km and the time is under 4 hours. It says this in the table :£300 (£240) which one am I claiming, £300 or £240 ?

So, at the time this really wound me up and lets face it, it still does.
Had booked flights through opodo from LAX, connecting at ATL and then onto MAN. All on the same booking.

Flight at LAX was delayed about 1.5hrs meaning I missed my connecting flight from ATL to MAN. The next flight was a complete 24 hrs later.
So it was late, the Delta desk was useless, giving out zero information, no help whatsoever, no food offered, no accommodation offered, I wasn't offered a refund, they automatically checked me back on to the next available flight. When I enquired about food/snacks/hotel I was basically told to f*** off.
It was the end of my holiday so I literally had $10 bucks left. My main baggage was being held and the hand luggage I had packed did not have any spare clothing/toothpaste/phone charger, anything useful in it. I asked if I could get my main bag back, NO apparently not. There was no way I was spending 24hrs at the hell hole that was ATL airport, so I opted for the cheapest hotel with a free shuttle and popped it on the pretty much maxed out credit card. Got to the hotel, spent my $10 on food and went to bed. Had to check out and go back to the airport as hotel was in middle of nowhere, so I still had 8 hours to kill. Still no food/water is offered by Delta, who I will not be flying with ever again.
Eventually got home (in a foul mood). Hit some hefty car parking charges for my extra day. Spoke to Delta the next day, got absolutely nowhere with them, who claimed it wasn't their fault, well, it sure as sh*t wasn't mine. Still 7 months on, im still annoyed and out of pocket. Hotel, Food, 24 hr sort of delay, after missing connection after a 1.5hr delay. Delay I found out was due to adverse weather conditions.
Am I entitled to anything? The flight cost roughly £400. Hotel about £40. Car parking charges were also £40
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Airline bust = no claim.

Claim for flight 6 years or more ago = time barred.
