Flight delay compensation: are you owed money?

If a flight arrives late, is cancelled or you are denied boarding despite a valid booking, the EU provides fixed compensation under EU Regulation 261/2004 — an amount per person depending on the distance, regardless of what the ticket cost. Answer a few questions and we’ll work it out for you — with the flight number, we even get the route and the delay from live flight data. You don’t just see the result, but every single step that led to it.

What this page is not: legal advice, nor a promise. We calculate solely with what you enter here — we don’t know the airline’s records or the weather back then. In the end, the decision is made by the airline or in court. Your answers to the questions stay on your device; only a flight number you look up goes to our server, together with the date.

Got your flight number?

Then we fetch the route, arrival and delay from live flight data — reliably for flights in the last 3 days and up to 2 days ahead. Otherwise, just answer the questions below.

The flight number and date go to our server, which looks up the flight data — without anything about you.
