How to be compensated by United Feeder Service on the Palma de Mallorca (PMI) - Southend (SEN) line

No one likes waiting for hours at the airport. If United Feeder Service did not respect its scheduled times for your Palma de Mallorca - Southend flight, the law is on your side.

Fortunately, for this specific route with a distance of 1 346 km, EC Regulation 261/2004 requires United Feeder Service to pay you financial compensation.

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.

  • Arrival airport: Southend Airport (SEN)
  • Flight distance: 1 346 km (~1h41)
  • Applicable compensation: 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.
