No one enjoys being stranded in the terminal. If Vueling Airlines didn't honour its scheduled times for your Palma de Mallorca - Brussels flight, the law is on your side.

Regulation 261/2004 is unambiguous: for 1 269 km, Vueling Airlines is held to a payout requirement if the delay exceeds 3 hours.

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: Brussels Airport (BRU)
  • Flight distance: 1 269 km (~1h35)

The compensation for PMI→BRU is redress for the inconvenience caused, not just a refund of airport taxes. For this short-haul flight, the 3-hour threshold remains the key criterion.
