How to claim your money from Luxair on Rhodos (RHO) → Luxemburg (LUX)

Boarding denied on your Luxair flight Rhodos ✈ Luxemburg? This affects many passengers regularly. Good news: you have concrete rights.

Regulation 261/2004 is unambiguous: for 2 293 km, Luxair is held to a payout requirement if the delay exceeds 3 hours.

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.

  • Arrival airport: Luxembourg-Findel International Airport (LUX)
  • Flight distance: 2 293 km (~2h52)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €

Note: only extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather, airspace closures, security threats) relieve Luxair from payment. Otherwise, the payout is owed.
