From Bordeaux airport, your departure with United Feeder Service to Lisbon didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.
Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 968 km of flight, the company United Feeder Service is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.
Why are you entitled to 250 €?

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.
How to know if the flight United Feeder Service Bordeaux - Lisbon is eligible?
The compensation for flight BOD-LIS is compensation for lost time and not a simple refund of airport taxes.
The compensation also covers boarding denials (overbooking). If United Feeder Service sold more seats than planned and you stay on the tarmac at Bordeaux, the 250 € compensation is automatic.
What are the conditions for United Feeder Service to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Lisbon.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Bordeaux airport.
-
Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to United Feeder Service (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Bordeaux, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your United Feeder Service compensation
Don't be fooled by United Feeder Service's vague terms: a 'wildcat' or declared strike remains the management responsibility of the company.
A strike by weather services at Bordeaux or European air traffic control is an external cause over which United Feeder Service has no control.
What are your rights at Bordeaux airport in case of prolonged wait?
Assistance is due from 2 hours of delay for a flight of this distance. United Feeder Service must ensure the well-being of its passengers stuck at Bordeaux.
Do not hesitate to request this assistance at the company's counter. If it is refused and you have to advance food or hotel costs at Bordeaux, keep your receipts carefully to request direct reimbursement.
