Ryanair passengers Gerona-Palma de Mallorca: your guide to get compensated

You travelled with Ryanair from Gerona to Palma de Mallorca and the flight was disrupted? EU law mandates compensation when the airline is at fault.

Given the route between Gerona and Palma de Mallorca (261 km), the EU scale provides for automatic protection in case of a breach by Ryanair. Short-haul routes are covered from the first tier.

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: Girona Airport (GRO)
  • Arrival airport: Palma De Mallorca Airport (PMI)
  • Flight distance: 261 km (~0h20)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

This is by no means a commercial courtesy from Ryanair, but a binding duty that applies to all flights subject to the scope of the directive.

How to know if the flight Ryanair Gerona - Palma de Mallorca is eligible?

Distinguish between fare reimbursement and statutory indemnity! Even if Ryanair proposes a voucher for your Gerona - Palma de Mallorca flight, you can still claim the cash sum of 250€ guaranteed by the regulation.

An class change doesn't change your right to 250€ if the initial disruption is established under Regulation 261. The amount stays fixed at this short-haul tier.

What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?

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

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Gerona, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation

Not all strike{s} exempt the airline from its obligations. If your Gerona - Palma de Mallorca delay was caused by an staff strike at Ryanair, the CJEU have confirmed that this entitles you to a payout.
