Procedure: Ryanair flight compensation from Kaunas to Dublin
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Kaunas and Dublin with Ryanair? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 1 967 km of flight, the company Ryanair is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.
Why are you entitled to 400 €?
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: Kaunas International Airport (KUN)
- Arrival airport: Dublin Airport (DUB)
- Flight distance: 1 967 km (~2h28)

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 Kaunas - Dublin is eligible?
The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Dublin Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Ryanair owes you 400 €.
An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Kaunas International Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 400 €.

-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Kaunas airport.

Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Ryanair (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Kaunas, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
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.
In all cases, a precise analysis of flight logs will confirm if the weather or traffic conditions were truly exceptional.
What are your rights at Kaunas 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 Kaunas.
If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Kaunas International Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.
