Flight compensation Ryanair:
Ibiza — Madrid

How to be compensated by Ryanair on the Ibiza (IBZ) - Madrid (MAD) line

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Ryanair did not respect its scheduled times for your Ibiza - Madrid flight, the law is on your side.

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 458 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.

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.

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 Ibiza - Madrid is eligible?

The compensation for flight IBZ-MAD is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

Keeping your travel documents for the Ryanair IBZ-MAD flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Ibiza.

What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?

• Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Madrid.
• 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

Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Ibiza - Madrid trip is due to an internal strike within Ryanair, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.

Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Ryanair is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 250 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.

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