How to claim your money from Ryanair on Charleroi (CRL) → Comiso (CIY)

No one enjoys being stranded in the terminal. If Ryanair didn't honour its scheduled times for your Charleroi - Comiso flight, the law is on your side.

The good news is, for this journey of 1 701 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 obliges Ryanair to provide financial compensation. This medium-haul distance places your flight in an intermediate bracket.

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.
