Get your Ryanair flight compensation for the route Palma de Mallorca - Valencia
No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Ryanair did not respect its scheduled times for your Palma de Mallorca - Valencia flight, the law is on your side.
Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 276 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires Ryanair to pay you financial compensation.
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: Valencia Airport (VLC)
- Flight distance: 276 km (~0h21)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
Too few travelers claim their due (less than 15% on average). Don't let this compensation fly away: the procedure, although sometimes administratively heavy on the company side, is an absolute right for the consumer.
How to know if the flight Ryanair Palma de Mallorca - Valencia is eligible?
The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Valencia Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, Ryanair owes you 250 €.
An unexpected cancellation or a diverted flight from Palma De Mallorca Airport without an immediate satisfactory solution gives rise to this same indemnity of 250 €.
What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Valencia.
-
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.
A strike by weather services at Palma De Mallorca Airport or European air traffic control is an external cause over which Ryanair has no control.
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.
If your new flight is not scheduled until the next day, the company must also take care of your hotel night near Palma De Mallorca Airport and the transfer by taxi or bus between the airport and the place of accommodation.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Ryanair?
The formal notice letter and the collection of evidence of delay at Valencia 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?
Patience is often the watchword. Airlines receive thousands of requests weekly and processing your file for the flight from Palma de Mallorca to Valencia Airport can drag on if you don't follow up.
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?
Don't take Ryanair's email for granted claiming that the airport was blocked by snow without checking official reports.
If you are certain of your right, you can refer to the Civil Aviation of the country of departure, or better yet, escalate the matter to the lower courts with the help of a specialized partner lawyer.
