How to get compensated from Ryanair on Rzeszow (RZE) - London (LTN)

Nobody likes waiting for hours at the airport. If Ryanair failed to meet its timetable for your Rzeszow → London flight, EU law backs you up.

Fortunately, for this route of 1 573 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 requires Ryanair to pay you a fixed indemnity. This medium-haul distance places your flight in an intermediate bracket.

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: Rzeszow (RZE)
  • Arrival airport: London Luton Airport (LTN)
  • Flight distance: 1 573 km (~1h58)

Too few passengers exercise their rights (only one in seven on average). Don't allow this compensation slip away: the procedure, although bureaucratic, is guaranteed for all travellers.
