Is your Ukraine International flight late? Get compensation and turn your worries into joy
Having your flight delayed or canceled is not uncommon, and disillusioned travelers who try to obtain financial compensation following a flight cancellation or delay rarely get satisfaction. Airlines are generally not very keen to respect our rights, and often invoke extraordinary circumstances to justify their refusal.
To counter their procedure, you can use the services of an online agency, which acts as an intermediary between the passenger and the company. She takes care of the steps for you until you obtain the compensation due to you. The advantage is that you will not waste your time or your money, since their commission is deducted from your gain, if successful only. And in a few seconds you will know if your flight is eligible on their website, provided with your flight number. Even if you bought a low cost plane ticket, you can claim compensation for canceled flights or flights with a delay of at least 3 hours on arrival. We know less, and yet it is not so rare, overbooking also entitles you to compensation, if you are denied boarding.
As soon as you choose a cheap trip, there is a good chance for the company to have this kind of practice. It is therefore not only in the event of a delayed flight that European law applies.
The amount of compensation intended to repair the damage due to the disruption of your trip:
The reimbursement you will receive depends on the distance traveled, in no case on the purchase price. You can therefore recover an amount greater than the purchase price. Not bad is not it ?
The amount collected can reach:
– 250 € for a flight up to 1500km
– 400 € for a flight between 1500km and 3500km
– 600 € for a flight of more than 3500 km
Conditions to be fulfilled to be authorized to file a claim against Ukrain International Airlines
– The plane must take off or land at a European airport if the airline is European
– The plane must take off from an airport located in Europe if the company is not European
– the late arrival of the aircraft must not be the result of exceptional circumstances (such as the weather or the strike of airport staff for example)
And there you say to yourself: “damn if I had known, last year I could have won € 600 when I returned from Bali 7 hours late! Well, know that you have five years to complete the procedures, so it is not too late. Good news, isn’t it?
Also note that all costs incurred are supposed to be advanced by the company. If not, remember to keep all of your receipts for reimbursement.
To be compensated by Ukraine International Airlines?
Even if your chances of winning the showdown with some airlines are quite low, you can of course try the procedures yourself.
In this case, use our form which allows you to contact lawyers without paying you a single euro at the start. They are ready to defend you and charge a commission of 25% on the compensation obtained only.
The documents to keep in order to claim compensation from your airline:
– Paper or electronic boarding passes (they are probably in your mailbox)
– Copy of an identity document
– a certificate of delay, cancellation or overbooking (with Air France this was not necessary, but in doubt remember to request it on the spot with the airline)
– Any other supporting document that can support your request, such as reservation emails, luggage tags, etc.)
– Receipts justifying expenses caused by the delay or cancellation of the flight (even if the company is supposed to take care of everything), such as hotel or meal invoices.
If their answer is negative or even non-existent, you can always call a specialized company in a second step.
Lawyers can contact your operator to manage the various reminders for you. However, there is nothing they can do without getting the green light. Fill out the form to let them know about your request.
