Get your Aer Lingus flight compensation for the route Ibiza - Dublin

From Ibiza Airport airport, your departure with Aer Lingus to Dublin didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 1 719 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Aer Lingus to pay you financial compensation.

Why are you entitled to 400 €?

The European Regulation EC 261/2004 is very strict regarding air passenger rights. The amount of fixed compensation does not depend on the price of your ticket, but only on the flight distance.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: Ibiza Airport (IBZ)
  • Arrival airport: Dublin Airport (DUB)
  • Flight distance: 1 719 km (~2h09)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €

This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.

How to know if the flight Aer Lingus Ibiza - Dublin is eligible?

The compensation for flight IBZ-DUB is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

Keeping your travel documents for the Aer Lingus IBZ-DUB flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Ibiza.

What are the conditions for Aer Lingus to compensate you?

  • Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Dublin.
  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Ibiza airport.
  • Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Aer Lingus (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Ibiza, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

The impact of a strike on your Aer Lingus compensation

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Ibiza - Dublin trip is due to an internal strike within Aer Lingus, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

Even if 400 € is not payable due to an external strike at Ibiza, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Aer Lingus.

What are your rights at Ibiza airport in case of prolonged wait?

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Aer Lingus must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Ibiza.

Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Ibiza Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by Aer Lingus.

Steps: how to get your 400 € from Aer Lingus?

The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Dublin Airport airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.

To maximize your chances of success, use a collection service. These experts know the case law perfectly and will not be intimidated by the legal department of Aer Lingus.

How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?

Some passengers wait more than 6 months for a response from Aer Lingus. An expert can reduce this time by half.

A collective action on the Aer Lingus flight from Ibiza can also be a way to get your funds faster.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?

It is not uncommon for a claim for 400 € to be automatically rejected by the company's algorithms under a fallacious generic pretext.

If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
