Flight compensation Ryanair:
Gdansk — Birmingham

Refund and compensation Ryanair: route Gdansk to Birmingham

If your trip departing from Gda?sk Lech Wa??sa Airport and arriving at Birmingham International Airport operated by Ryanair was disrupted, you are not alone against the airline.

By taking off from Gda?sk Lech Wa??sa Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 1 352 km determines your legal compensation level.

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 Gda?sk Lech Wa??sa Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

How to know if the flight Ryanair Gdansk - Birmingham is eligible?

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

In the case of a cancellation, if you are notified less than 14 days before your departure from Gdansk, the regulation applies in the same way.

What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation

The question of strikes is a frequent point of friction during a claim. It is vital to distinguish between a strike by Ryanair staff (pilots, flight attendants) and an external strike.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Gda?sk Lech Wa??sa Airport airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 250 € will not be due.

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

During these long hours of waiting in the Gda?sk Lech Wa??sa 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 Gdansk remains valid. The hotel is due if Ryanair offsets your flight by one night.
