Process: claim for Wizz Air flight from Prague to Tel-aviv

No one enjoys being stranded in the terminal. If Wizz Air didn't honour its scheduled times for your Prague - Tel-aviv flight, the law is on your side.

Regulation 261/2004 is unambiguous: for 2 635 km, Wizz Air is held to a payout requirement if the delay exceeds 3 hours.

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.
