Procedure: Ryanair flight compensation from Genoa to Charleroi
No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Ryanair did not respect its scheduled times for your Genoa - Charleroi flight, the law is on your side.
Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 748 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: Genova / Sestri Cristoforo Colombo Airport (GOA)
- Arrival airport: Brussels South Charleroi Airport (CRL)
- Flight distance: 748 km (~0h56)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.
How to know if the flight Ryanair Genoa - Charleroi is eligible?
The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Brussels South Charleroi Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Ryanair owes you 250 €.
The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Ryanair sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Genova / Sestri Cristoforo Colombo Airport, the 250 € compensation is automatic.
What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Charleroi.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Genoa airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Ryanair (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Genoa, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation
If your Ryanair flight from Genova / Sestri Cristoforo Colombo Airport was cancelled due to an internal union strike, you are eligible for legal repair.

What are your rights at Genoa airport in case of prolonged wait?
Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Ryanair must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Genoa.
Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Genova / Sestri Cristoforo Colombo Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by Ryanair.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Ryanair?

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

Recovering 250 € has never been faster thanks to the interconnection between defense platforms and Ryanair systems.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
