Cancelled Ryanair flight London ✈ Zadar: claim your compensation

Every year, thousands of passengers face disruptions on London → Zadar with Ryanair. Few realise they can claim a legal payout.

Thanks to EU Regulation CE 261, passengers affected by disruptions on a 1 414 km route can claim a fixed payout from {the carrier|Ryanair}.

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.

  • Arrival airport: Zemunik Airport (ZAD)
  • Flight distance: 1 414 km (~1h46)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

This lump-sum compensation system was created to discourage airlines from cancelling flights without compelling reasons. Don't hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful legal tool.

The indemnity also covers overbooking cases. If Ryanair overbooked the flight and you were left behind at London Stansted Airport, the 250€ payout is owed by right.
