Flight compensation Ryanair:
Malta — Wroclaw

EU law strictly protects passenger rights. For 1 706 km, the legal compensation is owed if {the airline is at fault|Ryanair bears responsibility}. Your flight falls within the medium-haul tier.

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.

Since the landmark CJEU judgment, significant arrival delays are treated like a cancellation for the right to compensation. This significantly strengthened the reach of CE 261.
