What you can expect

The check is an automated first assessment. It reflects the details you enter and is not legal advice — but it is right in the overwhelming majority of cases, and it is where almost every successful claim starts.

  • €250 to €600 per passenger

    The fixed sums set by the regulation, based on the distance flown — not the price of your ticket.

  • Two minutes to check

    A few questions about your flight is all it takes. No documents are needed to see your entitlement.

  • No win, no fee

    Our fee of 20–30% (+VAT) is only ever deducted from compensation we actually recover for you.

  • Up to three years back

    Depending on where the flight departed, you can claim for flights going back several years.

Before you start

Questions people ask first

Why choose Flightright?
Flightright is the leading defender of air passenger rights in Europe. Since 2010 we have ensured that passengers receive the compensation that is rightfully theirs after delays, cancellations or denied boarding. Our success rate in court is 99% and we have enforced more than €700,000,000 on behalf of our customers.
How much does it cost?
Upfront, nothing. Flightright works on a no-win, no-fee basis, so there are no costs to you if your claim is unsuccessful. If we pursue your compensation successfully, we transfer the funds once we receive them from the airline, minus our success fee of 20–30% (plus VAT). If your case requires our contract lawyers, an additional surcharge of 14% applies — only in the event of success.
Do I have to pay anything upfront?
No. There is nothing to pay to open a claim or to use the free compensation calculator. Our fee is only ever deducted from money we actually recover for you.
Is my claim covered by a no-win, no-fee guarantee?
Yes. We either enforce your compensation or our service is entirely free — even if your case has been taken to court. The financial risk sits with us, not with you.
How do I open a case with Flightright?
Enter your flight details into our online compensation calculator. It only takes a few minutes, and we ask a few questions about the flight so we have everything we need to assess your claim.
How do I send my documents to Flightright?
After submitting your claim you can upload your boarding passes directly on our website. If you do not have them to hand, you can upload them later through My Portal. You can also send documents by email, WhatsApp, post or fax at any time.
Which documents are required for enforcement?
In most cases we do not need booking documents for out-of-court enforcement. In individual cases they may be requested, so uploading them when you create the case saves work later — particularly if we need to present your boarding passes to a court.
How can I check the status of my claim?
You can follow the status of your claim in the online portal. We also email you whenever we receive news about your case, and you can contact us by email or phone at any time.
