Flight compensation Ryanair:
East Midlands — Bergamo

Refund and compensation Ryanair: route East Midlands to Bergamo

Your claim for compensation for the Ryanair flight from East Midlands to Bergamo deserves to be examined. A flight delay or cancellation is a frustrating experience for any traveler.

European legislation strictly frames passenger rights. For a distance of 1 127 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.

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

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

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

Also note that the distance of 1 127 km perfectly justifies the compensation bracket of 250 €. This amount is net and the airline cannot derogate from it in its own terms and conditions.

What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Bergamo.
• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at East Midlands airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Ryanair (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your East Midlands - Bergamo trip is due to an internal strike within Ryanair, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Ryanair is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 250 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.

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

During these long hours of waiting in the East Midlands 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.

Even in extraordinary circumstances, this right to assistance at East Midlands remains valid. The hotel is due if Ryanair offsets your flight by one night.

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.
