Airlines can make claiming compensation tricky — delaying or rejecting claims and turning it into a frustrating, time-consuming process.
That’s where we come in. We handle the paperwork, negotiations, and all the hassle, so you don’t have to. Our experts know air passenger rights laws inside and out, maximizing your chances of winning. And we only charge a service fee if we successfully secure your compensation.
Having the right documents makes your claim stronger.
Here's what's essential:
- Your boarding pass (including any passes for alternative flights)
- Your booking confirmation email or receipt (as proof of your reservation)
A few useful extras:
- The reason your flight was disrupted
- Receipts for extra expenses
- The arrival time of your flight
Yes! You can claim for friends, family, children, and colleagues. Each person you traveled with could also be eligible for up to £520 compensation — just include them in your claim.
Time limits vary by country, but in most cases, you can claim up to three years after the disruption.
We recommend submitting your claim as soon as possible to avoid missing your window of opportunity.
