Flight compensation Ryanair:
London — Lisbon

Get your Ryanair flight compensation for the route London - Lisbon

From London Stansted Airport airport, your departure with Ryanair to Lisbon didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 1 628 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Ryanair to pay you financial compensation.

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.

Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.

How to know if the flight Ryanair London - Lisbon is eligible?

For an Ryanair flight from London to Lisbon, punctuality is a performance obligation. A delay of 180 minutes triggers the right to financial compensation of 400 €.

The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If Ryanair sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at London Stansted Airport, the 400 € compensation is automatic.

What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?

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