Flight compensation Ryanair:
Bergamo — Manchester

Refund and compensation Ryanair: route Bergamo to Manchester

If your trip departing from Bergamo / Orio Al Serio Airport and arriving at Manchester Airport operated by Ryanair was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 1 212 km as is the case here, legal compensation is due if the company is at fault.

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.

The case law of the CJEU has strengthened these rights over the years, transforming Regulation 261/2004 into an effective shield against abuses by carriers like Ryanair.

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

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if Ryanair offers you a voucher for your Bergamo - Manchester flight, you can still claim the 250 euros cash provided by law.

Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 250 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.

What are the conditions for Ryanair 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 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

A work stoppage of Ryanair crews is considered inherent in the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 250 €.

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?

During these long hours of waiting in the Bergamo / Orio Al Serio Airport terminal, know that the airline has a legal obligation to take care of you. This includes catering, but also the possibility of making two telephone calls or sending emails for free.

Your forced stay at Bergamo shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your BGY-MAN trip.
