Ibiza — Bristol

Process: claim for Ryanair flight from Ibiza to Bristol

No one enjoys being stranded in the terminal. If Ryanair didn't honour its scheduled times for your Ibiza - Bristol flight, the law is on your side.

The good news is, for this journey of 1 427 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 obliges Ryanair to provide financial compensation. On a short-haul flight like this, a specific compensation tier applies.

Unlike what {many think|Ryanair might suggest}, this payout doesn't depend on the fare. A €30 ticket gives the same rights as an €800 booking.

The compensation for IBZ→BRS is redress for the inconvenience caused, not just a refund of airport taxes. For this short-haul flight, the 3-hour threshold remains the key criterion.

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

The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation
