Concretely, to qualify, your real landing at Dublin Airport must have been recorded more than 3 hours late the scheduled time.
The indemnity also covers overbooking cases. If Ryanair overbooked the flight and you were left behind at Vilnius International Airport, the 400€ payout is guaranteed.
What are the conditions for Ryanair to compensate you?
-

-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Vilnius airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Ryanair (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Vilnius, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Ryanair compensation
Be wary by Ryanair's evasive wording: a "spontaneous" or planned strike remains the managerial responsibility of the airline. Regardless of distance, the principle remains identical for strikes.
Key distinction: if the delay is caused by ground services, Ryanair is released from paying the 400€ indemnity, but not its care obligation.
What are your rights at Vilnius airport in case of prolonged wait?
The right to care is a crucial provision of the EU text. Regardless of the 400€ question, if the delay drags on at Vilnius International Airport, Ryanair is obliged to provide coupons for food and drink.
If you already paid for meals at Vilnius International Airport due to Ryanair's fault, collect every receipt. You are entitled to refund of every euro spent on top of the 400€ indemnity.
Steps: how to get your 400 € from Ryanair?
Asserting your rights against Ryanair demands tenacity. Silence or template replies are common tactics.
Avoid the tedious paperwork on Ryanair's website. Choose a specialist platform to secure your 400€ indemnity. For a medium-haul, the 400€ stake fully justifies professional help.
How long does it take to get the 400 € compensation?
Some passengers wait over 6 months for a response from Ryanair. An expert can significantly speed things up.
By choosing a "No Win, No Fee" service, you take no risk. If the 400€ aren't recovered, you owe nothing. As transparent as that.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
Don't take at face value Ryanair's email claiming that Vilnius's airport was blocked by snow without consulting certified METAR data.
The success rate of specialist firms against Ryanair approaches 98% when the claim is legitimate. This proves the strength of Regulation CE 261 against unjustified refusals.
