Flight compensation Ryanair:
Dublin — Porto

Legal right to compensation: Ryanair flight between Dublin and Porto

The DUB - OPO route operated by Ryanair experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.

Given the route between Dublin and Porto (1 366 km), the European scale provides automatic financial protection in case of failure by Ryanair.

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.

Did you know? Even if Ryanair is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Dublin Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

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

Check your actual arrival time at Porto. If Ryanair made you wait more than three hours on the tarmac at Porto, your claim is legitimate.

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

The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation

Don't be fooled by Ryanair's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.

A strike by weather services at Dublin Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Ryanair has no control.

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

If Dublin Airport airport becomes your temporary residence because of Ryanair, know that your essential needs must be covered by the carrier.

Your forced stay at Dublin shouldn't cost you a penny more than originally planned for your DUB-OPO trip.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Ryanair?

Starting a procedure against Ryanair for a flight from Dublin to Porto can be complex if you decide to go it alone. Customer service often tends to invoke the weather to clear themselves.

By entrusting your case regarding flight DUB-OPO to our experts, you benefit from the 'No Win, No Fee' principle.

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

Some passengers wait more than 6 months for a response from Ryanair. An expert can reduce this time by half.

By entrusting the recovery of your 250 € to a trusted third party, you save yourself months of waiting and the anxiety of seeing your case closed without follow-up, as reminders are managed by aviation law professionals.

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

Don't take Ryanair's email for granted claiming that the airport was blocked by snow without checking official reports.

If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
