How to be compensated by Ryanair on the Reus (REU) - London (STN) line
Have you experienced a major inconvenience during your trip between Reus and London with Ryanair? A flight delayed by several hours, a last-minute cancellation, or overbooking can ruin your plans.
Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 1 196 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: Reus Air Base (REU)
- Arrival airport: London Stansted Airport (STN)
- Flight distance: 1 196 km (~1h30)
- Applicable compensation: 250 €
This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.
How to know if the flight Ryanair Reus - London is eligible?
The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at London Stansted 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 Reus Air Base 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 London.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Reus airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Ryanair (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Reus, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation
Not all strikes exempt the company from its obligations. If the delay of your Reus - London trip is due to an internal strike within Ryanair, the European justice recently ruled that this entitles to compensation.
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 Reus airport in case of prolonged wait?
Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. Ryanair must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Reus.
Some passengers are unaware that transportation between the hotel and Reus Air Base terminal is also included in the legal package due by Ryanair.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Ryanair?
Getting justice against carrier Ryanair requires perseverance. No response or standardized refusals are common tactics.
To maximize your chances of success, use a collection service. These experts know the case law perfectly and will not be intimidated by the legal department of Ryanair.
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 Reus 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.
