Procedure: Ryanair flight compensation from Palma de Mallorca to Warsaw

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

Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 1 982 km of flight, the company Ryanair is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.

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.

Details of your right to compensation

  • Departure airport: Palma De Mallorca Airport (PMI)
  • Arrival airport: Warsaw (WMI)
  • Flight distance: 1 982 km (~2h29)
  • Applicable compensation: 400 €

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 - Warsaw is eligible?

The compensation for flight PMI-WMI is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.

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

When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Warsaw, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.
