Flight compensation Ryanair:
Bergamo — Dublin

Procedure: Ryanair flight compensation from Bergamo to Dublin

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Ryanair did not respect its scheduled times for your Bergamo - Dublin flight, the law is on your side.

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 1 434 km of flight, the company Ryanair is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.

Why are you entitled to 250 €?

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.

Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.

How to know if the flight Ryanair Bergamo - Dublin is eligible?

For an Ryanair flight from Bergamo to Dublin, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 250 €.

Keeping your travel documents for the Ryanair BGY-DUB flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Bergamo.

What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Bergamo - Dublin trip is due to an internal strike within Ryanair, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

A strike by weather services at Bergamo / Orio Al Serio Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Ryanair has no control.

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

Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Ryanair must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Bergamo.

Do not hesitate to request this assistance at the company's counter. If it is refused and you have to advance food or hotel costs at Bergamo / Orio Al Serio Airport, keep your receipts carefully to request direct reimbursement.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Ryanair?

The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Dublin Airport airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.

To maximize your chances of success, use a collection service. These experts know the case law perfectly and will not be intimidated by the legal department of Ryanair.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

Patience is often the watchword. Airlines receive thousands of requests weekly and processing your file for the flight from Bergamo to Dublin Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.

A collective action on the Ryanair flight from Bergamo can also be a way to get your funds faster.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?

Hitting a wall or getting a 'standard' negative response is unfortunately the lot of many passengers who claim only for the prejudice suffered on the Bergamo - Dublin line.

In the last instance, it is the summons to court that often unlocks the payment. The company Ryanair will always prefer to compromise and pay the 250 € rather than incur additional legal costs for a lost cause in court.
