How to be compensated by HQ- Business Express on the Liege (LGG) - Rhodos (RHO) line

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If HQ- Business Express did not respect its scheduled times for your Liege - Rhodos flight, the law is on your side.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 2 399 km of flight, the company HQ- Business Express is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.

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: Liege (LGG)
  • Arrival airport: Diagoras Airport (RHO)
  • Flight distance: 2 399 km (~2h60)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €

Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.

How to know if the flight HQ- Business Express Liege - Rhodos is eligible?

For an HQ- Business Express flight from Liege to Rhodos, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 400 €.

An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Liege without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 400 €.

What are the conditions for HQ- Business Express to compensate you?

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

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

The impact of a strike on your HQ- Business Express compensation

The question of strikes is a frequent point of friction during a claim. It is vital to distinguish between a strike by HQ- Business Express staff (pilots, flight attendants) and an external strike.

In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.

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

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. HQ- Business Express must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Liege.

Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Liege terminal is also included in the legal package due by HQ- Business Express.

Recovering 400 € has never been faster thanks to the interconnection between defense platforms and HQ- Business Express systems.

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

DGAC or its European equivalents can be slow. A private court proceeding against HQ- Business Express is often more striking.
