Most travellers only learn about their passenger rights after something goes wrong.
A delayed departure, a cancelled flight, or a missed connection can quickly disrupt your travel plans. While airlines often provide limited information during these situations, many passengers don’t realise that European regulations may entitle them to compensation or assistance.
Flightright was created to help travellers understand and enforce those rights. Since 2010, the company has specialised in helping passengers claim compensation for eligible flight disruptions, handling everything from the initial claim through legal enforcement when necessary. It has recovered more than €500 million for passengers and reports a court success rate of 98%.
Flight Delays
Long delays are among the most common travel disruptions.
Under European passenger rights legislation, passengers may be entitled to compensation if they arrive at their final destination more than three hours late and the disruption was not caused by extraordinary circumstances. Depending on the flight distance and eligibility, compensation can reach up to €600.
Instead of trying to determine whether your delay qualifies, Flightright allows you to submit your flight details and quickly receive an eligibility assessment.
Flight Cancellations
Cancelled flights can create major disruptions, especially if you’re travelling for work or have connecting flights.
In qualifying cases, passengers may have the right to compensation, rebooking, or a refund. Determining eligibility can be complicated because airlines may cite operational issues or extraordinary circumstances.
Flightright reviews the details of each case and communicates directly with the airline, allowing travellers to avoid lengthy correspondence and legal discussions.
Overbooked Flights
Overbooking still happens across many airlines.
If you’re denied boarding against your will because a flight has been oversold, you may be entitled to financial compensation as well as alternative transport or a refund, depending on the circumstances.
Flightright helps passengers determine whether their case qualifies and manages the claims process from beginning to end.
Missed Connections
Missing a connecting flight can turn a straightforward journey into an overnight stay.
When flights are booked together and a delay causes you to miss your connection, passenger rights may still apply depending on the circumstances and applicable regulations.
Rather than interpreting complex regulations yourself, Flightright evaluates your itinerary and determines whether compensation or other passenger rights may apply.
Simple Online Claims
One of Flightright’s biggest advantages is its straightforward process.
After entering your flight information online, the company evaluates your case, contacts the airline, negotiates on your behalf, and pursues legal action if necessary. The service operates on a no-win, no-fee basis, meaning fees are generally charged only if compensation is successfully recovered.
