Flight compensation Iberia Airlines:

Compensation & claim for Iberia Airlines: Ibiza to Brussels

Your payout case for the Iberia Airlines flight from Ibiza to Brussels has strong chances. Travel chaos is stressful for any traveller.

Leaving Ibiza Airport, you are covered by European legislation. The distance of 1 359 km sets the tier of your legal indemnity. The first tier (≤1500 km) applies.

Why are you entitled to 250 €?

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.

Since the Sturgeon ruling of 2009, delays over 3 hours are treated the same as cancellations regarding payout entitlement. This greatly broadened the scope of the regulation.

How to know if the flight Iberia Airlines Ibiza - Brussels is eligible?

To check if your journey between Ibiza and Brussels qualifies for compensation, the main criterion is the delay at destination ({not the departure delay|measured at Brussels Airport}). It must be over 3 hours.

Watch out for traps: Iberia Airlines might try to ask you to give up your rights. Don't accept anything before checking with a legal professional.

What are the conditions for Iberia Airlines to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Brussels.
• 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 Iberia Airlines (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Iberia Airlines compensation

Don't be misled by Iberia Airlines's vague terms: a unannounced or declared strike is the operational burden of the airline. On this short-haul, the internal/external strike distinction is the same.

Important nuance: if the cancellation is directly attributable to ground services, Iberia Airlines is exempted from the obligation to pay the 250€ compensation, while maintaining its duty of assistance.

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

The duty of assistance is a essential provision of the EU text. Independently of the 250€ question, if the delay extends at Ibiza Airport, Iberia Airlines must distribute meal vouchers.

The law is unambiguous: care is never a goodwill gesture from Iberia Airlines. It is a legal obligation enforceable in court.
