Procedure: Ryanair flight compensation from Edinburgh to Rygge
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Edinburgh and Rygge with Ryanair? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 922 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Ryanair to pay you financial compensation.
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: Edinburgh Airport (EDI)
- Arrival airport: Moss Airport, Rygge (RYG)
- Flight distance: 922 km (~1h09)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.
How to know if the flight Ryanair Edinburgh - Rygge is eligible?

The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation
