Procedure: Ryanair flight compensation from Bordeaux to London
From Bordeaux airport, your departure with Ryanair to London didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.
Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 788 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.
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.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Bordeaux (BOD)
- Arrival airport: London Stansted Airport (STN)
- Flight distance: 788 km (~0h59)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.
How to know if the flight Ryanair Bordeaux - London is eligible?
The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at London Stansted Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Ryanair owes you 250 €.
An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Bordeaux without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 250 €.
What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at London.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Bordeaux airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Ryanair (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Bordeaux, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation
If your Ryanair flight from Bordeaux was cancelled due to an internal union strike, you are eligible for legal repair.
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 Bordeaux - London flight.
What are your rights at Bordeaux 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 Bordeaux.
Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Bordeaux terminal is also included in the legal package due by Ryanair.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Ryanair?
The amicable route with Ryanair to recover 250 € often fails without a technical and legal file.
Don't fill out complex forms on the Ryanair website. Go through a passenger defense portal to secure your 250 € indemnity.
How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
On the BOD-STN line, delays can vary according to the reactivity of Ryanair's legal department.
Recovering 250 € has never been faster thanks to the interconnection between defense platforms and Ryanair systems.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
The use of complex legal jargon by Ryanair is often a maneuver to encourage the traveler to abandon their 250 €.
DGAC or its European equivalents can be slow. A private court proceeding against Ryanair is often more striking.
