Claim and compensation for flight United Feeder Service Funchal - Bristol

The FNC - BRS route operated by United Feeder Service experienced a disruption? Whether it was a technical or operational issue, you could claim a flat sum.

By taking off from Madeira Airport, you are protected by the EU's legal framework. The distance of 2 371 km determines your legal compensation level.

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.

Did you know? Even if United Feeder Service is a non-EU airline, if the flight takes off from Madeira Airport, the European regulation applies in full.

Don't confuse ticket refund and legal compensation! Even if United Feeder Service offers you a voucher for your Funchal - Bristol flight, you can still claim the 400 euros cash provided by law.

Upgrading or downgrading does not change your right to 400 € if the initial incident is qualified under Regulation 261.
