Procedure: Ryanair flight compensation from Palma de Mallorca to Bologna
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Palma de Mallorca and Bologna with Ryanair? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 897 km have the right to demand flat-rate compensation from the carrier.
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: Palma De Mallorca Airport (PMI)
- Arrival airport: Bologna / Borgo Panigale Airport (BLQ)
- Flight distance: 897 km (~1h07)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
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 Palma de Mallorca - Bologna is eligible?
The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Bologna / Borgo Panigale Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Ryanair owes you 250 €.
Keeping your travel documents for the Ryanair PMI-BLQ flight is crucial to prove that you were present at boarding at Palma de Mallorca.
What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Bologna.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Palma de Mallorca airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Ryanair (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Palma de Mallorca, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation
Don't be fooled by Ryanair's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.
Warning however: if the cancellation is directly attributable to the airport staff or a decision by air navigation, Ryanair is released from its obligation to pay the legal indemnity of 250 euros, but not from its duty of assistance.
What are your rights at Palma de Mallorca airport in case of prolonged wait?
In addition to financial compensation, the European regulation guarantees what is called a 'right to care.' If your flight is delayed departing from Palma De Mallorca Airport, Ryanair must provide you with free meals and refreshments in reasonable quantity given the delay.
Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Palma De Mallorca Airport terminal is also included in the legal package due by Ryanair.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Ryanair?
The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Bologna / Borgo Panigale Airport airport (boarding pass, certificate) are mandatory steps to face the airline.
Partner LegalTech services have tools to check actual Ryanair flight logs and contradict false weather excuses.
How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?
Airlines like Ryanair sometimes prioritize cases defended by law firms to avoid late interests.
A collective action on the Ryanair flight from Palma de Mallorca can also be a way to get your funds faster.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
It is not uncommon for a claim for 250 € to be automatically rejected by the company's algorithms under a fallacious generic pretext.
In the last instance, it is the summons to court that often unlocks the payment. The company Ryanair will always prefer to compromise and pay the 250 € rather than incur additional legal costs for a lost cause in court.
