FAQ

  • Can I get compensation if my Delta flight was delayed for over 3 hours?

    If your Delta Airlines flight arrived at your final destination more than three hours late, and the journey departed from the EU or was operated by an EU airline arriving into the EU, you may be eligible for compensation under EC Regulation 261/2004.

    Entitlement depends on the flight route and the reason for the delay. Compensation generally does not apply if the delay was caused by extraordinary circumstances beyond the airline’s control, such as severe weather or medical emergencies.

  • What should I do if Delta cancelled my flight less than 14 days before departure?

    If your Delta Airlines flight was cancelled with fewer than 14 days’ notice and no comparable alternative was offered, you may be entitled to compensation under EC Regulation 261/2004, depending on the timing of the replacement flight.

    In addition, the regulation allows passengers to request a refund or rebooking. However, compensation is not provided if the disruption was caused by extraordinary circumstances or if the replacement flight falls within the time thresholds defined in the regulation.

  • Can I request reimbursement for expenses after a Delta flight cancellation?

    Passengers may request reimbursement from Delta Airlines for necessary expenses, such as meals, accommodation, or local transport, if the airline did not provide support during the disruption.

    It is important to keep all receipts and submit them along with the claim. Reimbursement is assessed based on the situation and the airline’s policies, in line with applicable passenger rights regulations.

  • How is Delta Airlines compensation calculated under EU 261?

    If your flight falls within the scope of EC Regulation 261/2004, compensation is calculated based on the flight distance:

    • €250 for flights under 1,500 km 
    • €400 for flights between 1,500 and 3,500 km 
    • €600 for flights over 3,500 km 

    Delta may offer the compensation either in cash or as Transportation Credit Vouchers (TCVs), subject to availability and passenger consent. The final amount and format depend on the circumstances of the disruption and relevant legal provisions.
