Claiming compensation for a delayed British Airways flight
If your British Airways flight was delayed you could end up waiting a long time at the airport and lose significant time or miss important affairs. This is why Regulation 261/2004 was introduced and has been in effect since 2005. It establishes your rights as an airline passenger. In order to claim compensation for a delayed flight, the following criteria must apply:
- The arrival delay must exceed three hours
- Your flight must be from an EU country
- Or you must be coming into an EU country with a European airline company
British Airways is a European airline company, this means that if your flight arrives with a delay exceeding three hours and no extraordinary circumstances apply, you are entitled to compensation which can add up to €600 (£539*) per person.
Example: Your flight with British Airways from New York to London Heathrow is delayed because of a technical fault. You arrive in London with a delay of almost five hours. You are not entitled to a compensation of €600 (£539*) per person.
