If you are reading this right now, you might have been a victim of flight delays and cancellations.

Well, there are many in such situations, and looking for ways to get some recompense for the stress and strain and the loss that the delay has caused.

Now, as for the amount of reimbursement you get for the cancellation, it entirely depends upon your flight, the kind of ticket you purchased and also on the airlines. The EU regulations, 261/2004 states that you can get a claim up to 600 euros for a delayed or a canceled flight.

However, there are several rules and regulations that are put forth by the airlines when you approach them for flight delay compensations. For instance, they might just offer you a discount on the next booking or claim that your application is delayed. Or, the airlines might simply refuse, stating that it was not their fault or you were suitably given another seat in a different flight.

All this and much more can happen when you approach the airline for compensation. Although, it might not always be the same and sometimes, the compensations might come in easily, if the airline agrees to it readily. Whatever may be the reason for a flight delay, you, as an affected party are eligible for reimbursement, and claiming it is your right.

If you are not completely sure about the amount of claim you should raise, you can always approach companies who deal with it professionally. The flight compensation companies, as they are called, deal with all kinds of compensations claimed for flight delays and cancellations. For them, it is a job and therefore, they are quite expert at dealing with the firewalls in between to get what you require. So, approaching them can help in getting suitable compensation that you seek from the airlines.
