Flight compensation Ryanair:
London — Stockholm

Procedure: Ryanair flight compensation from London to Stockholm

Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between London and Stockholm with Ryanair? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 1 299 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Ryanair to pay you financial compensation.

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 London - Stockholm is eligible?

The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Stockholm Skavsta Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Ryanair owes you 250 €.

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 250 € compensation is automatic.

What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?

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

The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation

If your Ryanair flight from London Stansted Airport was cancelled due to an internal union strike, you are eligible for legal repair.

On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at London Stansted Airport airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 250 € will not be due.

What are your rights at London 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 London.

If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near London Stansted Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.

Steps: how to get your 250 € from Ryanair?
