Flight compensation Ryanair:
Palma de Mallorca — London

How to be compensated by Ryanair on the Palma de Mallorca (PMI) - London (STN) line

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Ryanair did not respect its scheduled times for your Palma de Mallorca - London flight, the law is on your side.

Thanks to the European CE 261 text, passengers who are victims of these issues on a trip of 1 385 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.

Remember that this law applies whether you are traveling in economy or business class, and regardless of the passenger's nationality.

What are your rights at Palma de Mallorca airport in case of prolonged wait?

Don't fill out complex forms on the Ryanair website. Go through a passenger defense portal to secure your 250 € indemnity.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

On the PMI-STN line, delays can vary according to the reactivity of Ryanair's legal department.

Recovering 250 € has never been faster thanks to the interconnection between defense platforms and Ryanair systems.

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

The first refusal from Ryanair should not discourage you. Very often, passenger services invoke 'weather' by default to test the traveler's determination.

DGAC or its European equivalents can be slow. A private court proceeding against Ryanair is often more striking.
