Legal payout: Iberia Airlines flight Palma de Mallorca → London

Boarding denied on your Iberia Airlines flight Palma de Mallorca ✈ London? This affects many passengers regularly. Good news: you have concrete rights.

The good news is, for this journey of 1 348 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 obliges Iberia Airlines to provide financial compensation. On a short-haul flight like this, a specific compensation tier 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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: Palma De Mallorca Airport (PMI)
  • Arrival airport: London Heathrow Airport (LHR)
  • Flight distance: 1 348 km (~1h41)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

Too few passengers exercise their rights (only one in seven on average). Don't allow this compensation slip away: the procedure, although bureaucratic, is guaranteed for all travellers.

How to know if the flight Iberia Airlines Palma de Mallorca - London is eligible?

The 3-hour threshold is measured at the moment the aircraft doors are unlocked at London Heathrow Airport. If the delay is confirmed and the disruption is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Iberia Airlines owes you 250€.

If you had a connection are equally covered. If your first Iberia Airlines segment Palma de Mallorca→London leads to a missed connection, the total delay at your final destination counts.

What are the conditions for Iberia Airlines to compensate you?

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

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

The impact of a strike on your Iberia Airlines compensation

Not every strike{s} release the airline from its duties. If your Palma de Mallorca → London delay was caused by an internal strike at Iberia Airlines, EU courts have recently ruled that compensation is owed.

Even if the 250€ are not owed due to an external strike at Palma de Mallorca, care (food/accommodation) remains owed Iberia Airlines. Keep this in mind.

What are your rights at Palma de Mallorca 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 Palma De Mallorca Airport, Iberia Airlines must distribute meal vouchers.

If you advanced money for a taxi at Palma De Mallorca Airport due to Iberia Airlines's disruption, compile all invoices. You can request reimbursement of these costs independently of the 250€ compensation.
