Flight compensation United Airlines:
Dublin — New York

Procedure: United Airlines flight compensation from Dublin to New York

From Dublin Airport airport, your departure with United Airlines to New York didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 5 103 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires United Airlines to pay you financial compensation.

Why are you entitled to 600 €?

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.

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.

The impact of a strike on your United Airlines compensation
