Ryanair passengers Poznan-Bristol: what to do to file a claim

You were due to travel with Ryanair from Poznan to Bristol and things went wrong? Regulation CE 261/2004 guarantees a payout in most cases.

Seize this entitlement: the Ryanair flight Poznan → Bristol (1 342 km) entitles you to 250€ compensation under EU regulation.

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: Pozna?-?awica Airport (POZ)
  • Arrival airport: Bristol International Airport (BRS)
  • Flight distance: 1 342 km (~1h41)
  • Applicable compensation: 250 €

This is by no means a commercial courtesy from Ryanair, but a binding duty that applies to all flights subject to the scope of the directive.

How to know if the flight Ryanair Poznan - Bristol is eligible?

Distinguish between fare reimbursement and statutory indemnity! Even if Ryanair proposes a voucher for your Poznan - Bristol flight, you can still claim the cash sum of 250€ guaranteed by the regulation.

In the case of a flight suppression, if you were informed fewer than two weeks before your departure from Poznan, the CE 261 applies equally.

What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?

  • Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Bristol.
  • Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
  • Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Poznan airport.
  • Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Ryanair (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).

Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Poznan, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.

What are your rights at Poznan airport in case of prolonged wait?
