When are you entitled to an overbooked flight compensation?

You are entitled to an airline overbooking compensation if the disruption meets these 2 conditions:

Your overbooked flight was to/from EU

Your overbooked flight was from or within EU or arrived to EU and was operated by an EU airline.

How much can you get in compensation for an overbooked flight?

Airlines overbooking flights owe you compensation in case you were denied boarding. Your overbooked flight compensation depends on your flight distance - the longer the flight, the bigger the compensation.

When are you not entitled to overbooked flight compensation?

There are several circumstances under which the airlines are not responsible for the flight disruption - and the flight is not eligible for flight compensation!

FAQ

My flight was overbooked. What information should I have to support my overbooking claim?

To support your overbooking claim, you should have your flight booking confirmation, boarding pass, and any documentation related to the airline’s compensation policies and procedures.

Can I get denied boarding compensation because of overbooking? What are my other rights?

In this case, you can expect to:

  • Recover the full price of the ticket within 7 days from the date of the incident
  • Get a ticket on the next plane to your final destination, under similar terms
  • Select a later flight under similar conditions.

If you choose to travel on a different route, and you have to wait, the carrier is required to provide you with free meals and drinks, access to two free calls, let you use email or send a free fax. When you have to wait for a flight for one or more nights – you must be granted free accommodation in a hotel, including transport to/from the airport.
