Claim and compensation for flight Jet2.com Heraklion - Manchester

If your trip departing from Heraklion International Nikos Kazantzakis Airport and arriving at Manchester Airport operated by Jet2.com was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

By taking off from Heraklion International Nikos Kazantzakis Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 2 929 km determines your legal compensation level.

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.

Did you know? Even if Jet2.com is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Heraklion International Nikos Kazantzakis Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Jet2.com Heraklion - Manchester is eligible?

Check your actual arrival time at Manchester. If Jet2.com made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Manchester Airport, your claim is legitimate.

Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 400 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.

What are the conditions for Jet2.com to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Manchester.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Heraklion airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Jet2.com (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Jet2.com compensation

The question of strikes is a frequent point of friction during a claim. It is vital to distinguish between a strike by Jet2.com staff (pilots, flight attendants) and an external strike.

The nuance is subtle, but essential. By calling on specialized lawyers, they will check the actual flight causative factors in the aeronautical databases reported by the captain on the day of your Heraklion - Manchester flight.

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

If Heraklion International Nikos Kazantzakis Airport airport becomes your temporary residence because of Jet2.com, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.

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

A frequent question concerns processing times. A claim filed directly with Jet2.com customer service can take several weeks or even months before getting a response.
