How to claim your money from United Feeder Service on Barcelona (BCN) → London (LGW)

No one enjoys being stranded in the terminal. If United Feeder Service didn't honour its scheduled times for your Barcelona - London flight, the law is on your side.

The good news is, for this journey of 1 109 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 obliges United Feeder Service to provide financial compensation. On a short-haul flight like this, a specific compensation tier applies.

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.

Bear in mind: only genuine force majeure (exceptional conditions, ATC restrictions, political instability) exempt United Feeder Service from this obligation. In all other cases, compensation must be paid.

How to know if the flight United Feeder Service Barcelona - London is eligible?

Whether your United Feeder Service flight Barcelona→London was cancelled or you were bumped, the 250€ compensation is potentially owed in each of these scenarios.

An sudden suppression or a rerouted flight from Barcelona International Airport without a satisfactory solution qualifies for the same 250€ indemnity.

What are the conditions for United Feeder Service 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 Barcelona airport.
• Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to United Feeder Service (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
