How to know if the flight Jet2.com Fuerteventura - Glasgow is eligible?
To determine if your trip between Fuerteventura and Glasgow entitles you to compensation, the main criterion is the delay at arrival (and not at departure). It must be more than 3 hours.
In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Fuerteventura, the regulation applies in the same way.
What are the conditions for Jet2.com to compensate you?
-

-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Fuerteventura airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Jet2.com (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Fuerteventura, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Jet2.com compensation
A work stoppage of Jet2.com crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 400 €.
Even if 400 € is not payable due to an external strike at Fuerteventura, assistance (meals/hotel) remains mandatory for Jet2.com.
What are your rights at Fuerteventura airport in case of prolonged wait?
If Fuerteventura Airport airport becomes your temporary residence because of Jet2.com, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.
In the case of a flight postponement until the next day, the regulation stipulates that hotel accommodation and transfers from and to Fuerteventura Airport airport are entirely the responsibility of the air carrier.
Steps: how to get your 400 € from Jet2.com?

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

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.
