Procedure: Jet2.com flight compensation from Arrecife to Glasgow

From Lanzarote Airport airport, your departure with Jet2.com to Glasgow didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 3 081 km of flight, the company Jet2.com 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: Lanzarote Airport (ACE)
  • Arrival airport: Glasgow International Airport (GLA)
  • Flight distance: 3 081 km (~3h51)
  • 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 long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?
