Ryanair flight London → Memmingen: guide on a refund

Regularly, many passengers suffer delays on London - Memmingen with Ryanair. Most don't know they can claim financial compensation.

Your payout amount is independent of the fare. The distance alone of 836 km determines the payout under CE 261/2004.

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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: London Stansted Airport (STN)
  • Arrival airport: Memmingen Allgau Airport (FMM)
  • Flight distance: 836 km (~1h03)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

Remember that this law applies whether you're in economy or business, and irrespective of the passenger's citizenship.

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

The departure time is not the relevant criterion. Only the {arrival time at Memmingen|time the doors open at Memmingen Allgau Airport} establishes your {eligibility|right to 250€}.

The 250€ fixed payout is owed for each traveller. A family of 4: every passenger can claim {the same amount|250€}. Even on a short flight, families can recover a significant sum.

What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?

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

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from London, 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 common friction point in claims. It is essential to differentiate between a strike by Ryanair's employees (flight crew) and an external strike.

Don't take at face value Ryanair's explanation. Many airlines wrongly categorise their own staff disputes as force majeure to avoid {paying compensation|the 250€}.

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

Too many passengers don't know that Ryanair must offer them sustenance and contact means throughout the delay at London Stansted Airport. It's a legal obligation, not a bonus.

Many passengers don't know that transport between the hotel and the airport of London Stansted Airport is also covered in the mandatory care required of Ryanair.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Ryanair?

Getting justice against Ryanair requires persistence. No response or standardised rejections are the norm with airlines.

Partner LegalTech services have tools to verify Ryanair's actual flight records and dismantle unfounded arguments.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

On the STN-FMM route, timelines can vary depending on the speed of Ryanair's claims team.

Recovering 250€ has never been faster thanks to the technology between defence platforms and Ryanair's databases.

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?

The initial rejection from Ryanair must not make you give up. In most cases, passenger services invoke "weather" by default to gauge the traveller's persistence.

A recovery firm will know precisely how to rebut Ryanair's excuses, having access to certified weather records and traffic reports from London Stansted Airport to prove the airline's fault.
