How to know if the flight United Feeder Service Palma de Mallorca - Belfast is eligible?
The 3-hour limit is calculated at the moment the aircraft doors open at Belfast International Airport airport. If this is the case, and the flight cancellation is not due to extraordinary circumstances, United Feeder Service owes you 400 €.

The impact of a strike on your United Feeder Service compensation
When a social movement disrupts your itinerary to Belfast International Airport, the company will often try to clear itself. However, a strike by its own staff is no longer, in the majority of cases, considered an exonerating circumstance.
On the other hand, if it is the air traffic controllers, the baggage handlers at Palma De Mallorca Airport airport, or the security staff who are on strike, it is indeed an extraordinary circumstance. In this precise scenario, the 400 € will not be due.
