Flight compensation Ryanair:
Bristol — Palma de Mallorca

Full breakdown: Ryanair claim Bristol → Palma de Mallorca

If your flight from Bristol International Airport to Palma De Mallorca Airport flown by Ryanair was impacted, legal remedies exist when dealing with the airline.

Seize this entitlement: the Ryanair flight Bristol → Palma de Mallorca (1 382 km) entitles you to 250€ compensation under EU regulation.

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.

This is by no means a commercial courtesy from Ryanair, but a binding duty that applies to all flights subject to the scope of the directive.
