How to Claim Compensation for EasyJet Flights
Experiencing a delayed or cancelled flight can be frustrating. If you’ve flown with EasyJet and encountered disruptions, you may be entitled to compensation of up to £520 per person. This guide will walk you through the process of claiming compensation from EasyJet flights, highlighting your passenger rights and the steps to follow.
Understanding Your Eligibility for Compensation
For Delayed Flights:
If your flight was delayed by more than 3 hours and the delay was not caused by extraordinary circumstances (e.g., severe weather conditions), you might be eligible for compensation.
For Cancelled Flights:
You may be entitled to compensation if EasyJet cancels your flight less than 14 days before the scheduled departure date.
Knowing Your Rights Under EC 261
EasyJet flights are generally protected by EC 261, a regulation that safeguards air passenger rights within the EU. This regulation allows you to claim compensation for delays, cancellations, and overbooked flights that were not your fault.
