Was you flight to or from Estonia delayed?

If you arrive at your end destination with a delay of three hours or more, you may be entitled to compensation for loss of time. Regulation 261/2004 has been set in place to uphold your rights as airline passenger when you flight is delayed or cancelled. This legislation protects your rights as an airline passenger and determines when you are entitled to make a claim.

Regulation 261/2004 was amended after Brexit to the The Air Passenger Rights and Air Travel Organisers’ Licensing (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019 has been set in place to uphold your rights as airline passenger when you flight is delayed or cancelled. Both legislations protect your rights as an airline passenger and determines the obligations of the airline.

To see your passenger rights protected, your delayed flight must meet the following conditions:

• The flight departed from an EU country
• Or the flight departed from outside the EU to a country within the EU with a European airline
• In addition, the flight arrived at its final destination with a delay of three hours or more
