Seize this entitlement: the Luxair flight Luxemburg → Lisbon (1 711 km) entitles you to 400€ compensation under EU regulation.

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 Luxair is a non-EU carrier, if the flight departs from Luxembourg-Findel International Airport, EU regulation applies completely.

Three conditions must be met to trigger your right to 400€: {delay exceeds 3h at Lisbon|flight cancelled less than 14 days before|boarding denied} — and {the cause is attributable to|Luxair is responsible for|the fault lies with} Luxair.

An upgrade or downgrade doesn't affect your right to 400€ if the original incident qualifies under Regulation 261. The intermediate indemnity remains unchanged regardless of reclassification.
