![]() I’m of course kicking myself for how I handled this, though at the same time, I’m trying to be realistic: In order to receive this compensation you actually need to be checked in for the flight, and have the flight canceled on the same “reservation.” I’m trying to make myself feel better I totally messed this up, because I “voluntarily” canceled our ticket, and rebooked us on a new itinerary the next day. So we would have been entitled to 1,200 Euro compensation. Long story short, if your long haul flight to or from the European Union is delayed by more than four hours, you’re entitled to 600 Euro cash compensation per person. Grrrrr!!! How on earth had I not even thought of that? I was so pleased with having rebooked us on a new itinerary in record time, and somehow this slipped my mind.įor those not familiar, the European Union has the most consumer-friendly regulations for air travelers of anywhere in the world, known as EU261. “Does that mean we get that European delay compensation?” I screwed us out of 1,200 Euro compensation!Ī minute after rebooking our flights I texted Ford about the new flights and he texted me back: This even worked better for our schedule, as we were feeling a bit rushed with leaving Florida. So within five minutes everything was rebooked, and we were good to go for the following day.
