The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation

The issue of strikes is a frequent sticking point in compensation cases. It is vital to distinguish between a strike by Ryanair's own staff (pilots, cabin crew) and an third-party strike.

In every scenario, close examination of records will establish whether the conditions were genuinely exceptional. ATC strikes have a proportionally stronger impact on short routes.

If your new flight is only the following morning, Ryanair must additionally cover your accommodation near Krakow as well as the taxi or bus transfer between the airport and the hotel.
