Why are you entitled to 400 €?

The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation

A strike action by Ryanair's flight staff is deemed part of the normal activity of the carrier and no longer constitutes a valid excuse to refuse the 400€.

A strike by air traffic control at Menara Airport or Eurocontrol is an independent circumstance over which Ryanair cannot act.

How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?

The paradox: the longer Ryanair delays paying your 400€, the more the final bill risks growing in penalties. Lawyers exploit this fact to force the airline's hand.

By entrusting the recovery of your 400€ to a trusted partner, you spare yourself months of waiting and the stress of seeing your case ignored, as chasing are handled by legal experts.

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

It is not uncommon for Ryanair's algorithms to automatically reject your first attempt under a vague excuse without merit.

As a last resort, it is court action that often unlocks payment. Ryanair will almost always choose to pay the 400€ rather than face lawyer fees for a case doomed to fail in court.
