Passengers of US Bangla Airlines who have experienced a cancelled or delayed flight are legally entitled to compensation. According to EU 261/2004, airlines must compensate passengers in case of a significant disruption. Here, we’ll examine your rights and the steps you need to take to obtain the compensation you are entitled to from the airline.
US Bangla Airlines Flight Delay or Cancellation Compensation
Before claiming the US Bangla Airlines compensation, you should be aware of the conditions and the amount of compensation you may expect to get in case of flight cancellation or delay.
US Bangla Airlines Compensation for Flight Delay
In line with UK and EU regulations, passengers can receive up to €600 in compensation per person if their flight is delayed. It’s important to note that this flight delay compensation is based on the flight’s landing time, not the departure time, so the key to your claim is the actual time you arrive at your final destination.
Let’s take a look at how much compensation you could be eligible for if your flight is delayed. The amount of compensation varies based on several factors, such as the duration of the delay and the route length of your flight:
Less than 3 hours | Between 3-4 hours | Over 4 hours | Distance |
€0 | €250 | €250 | All flights up to 1500 km |
€0 | €400 | €400 | All flights between 1500 km and 3500 km |
€0 | €400 | €400 | All intra-EU flights over 3500 km |
€0 | €300 | €600 | All non-EU flights over 3500 km |
Be aware you might not be compensated for every flight delay. US Bangla Airlines is not obliged to compensate passengers when extraordinary circumstances outside their control arise. This covers bad weather, airport issues, or a strike by air traffic controllers. In these instances, you will usually not be compensated as it is not the airline’s fault.
US Bangla Airlines Compensation for Flight Cancellation
EU 261 states that airlines have to notify passengers of cancellations at least 14 days before departure. If the airline doesn’t provide timely notification, you could qualify for flight cancellation compensation ranging from €250 to €600 per passenger, based on the flight distance. However, if the airline provides you with an alternate flight, it could potentially avoid paying compensation for the cancelled flight if the following conditions are met:
Advance Notice | Re-routing Requirements |
14 Days | None |
7 – 13 Days | Alternative flight departing no more than 2 hours before and arriving less than 4 hours after the original flight |
Less than 7 Days | Alternative flight departing no more than 1 hour before and arriving less than 2 hours after the original flight |
Even when accepting an alternative flight, passengers retain their right to compensation if they still experience significant delays at their final destination. The amount of compensation is determined based on two criteria: the flight distance and the length of the delay, in line with the table below:
Under 2 hours | 2-3 hours | 3-4 hours | Over 4 hours | Never arrived | Distance |
€125 | €250 | €250 | €250 | €250 | All flights 1,500 km or less |
€200 | €200 | €400 | €400 | €400 | Internal EU flights over 1,500 km |
€200 | €200 | €400 | €400 | €400 | Non-internal EU flights 1,500 km- 3,500 km |
€300 | €300 | €300 | €600 | €600 | Non-internal EU flights over 3,500 km |
US Bangla Airlines isn’t required to compensate you if they offer an alternative flight that departs and arrives near the same time as your original flight. Also, you usually won’t receive compensation if the flight is cancelled due to circumstances beyond the airline’s control, such as adverse weather conditions or when airline staff goes on strike.
Are US Bangla Airlines Flights Covered By EU 261/2004?
EU 261 covers all flights departing from European Union airports. It also covers flights arriving in the EU if the airline originates in the EU. This includes airlines from EU countries as well as Iceland, Norway, and Switzerland.
However, US Bangla Airlines isn’t a European airline. Therefore, they are not obliged to pay you compensation if their flights operate outside of Europe. This is true even for their flights to Europe if they start outside the EU.
Itinerary | Covered by EU 261 |
Flights departing from EU airports | ✔️ Yes |
Flights arriving at EU airports | ❌ No |

What You Can Get Besides EU Flight Compensation
US Bangla Airlines goes the extra mile to support passengers during travel disruptions by offering services that complement flight compensation.
Right to Care
When flight disruptions happen, US Bangla Airlines is committed to ensuring passenger comfort through the Right to Care provision. The right, established under EU 261, becomes applicable when flight delays exceed two hours. The services provided include:
- Meals and Refreshments: Passengers are provided with meals and beverages appropriate to the length of delay. This may include vouchers for airport restaurants or direct distribution of snacks and drinks.
- Communication: US Bangla Airlines offers two free phone calls, emails, or fax messages to keep passengers connected with family or business contacts.
- Accommodation: If the delay extends for the night or requires an additional stay, US Bangla Airlines arranges hotel room accommodation. This covers transportation to and from the airport and the hotel.
- Special Assistance: Extra care is given to passengers with reduced mobility or special needs.
To access these services, you can simply approach airline staff at the airport for immediate assistance.
Rebooking and Refunds
When US Bangla Airlines cancels a flight, passengers can choose to receive a full refund or rebook on another flight. This flexibility is essential for minimizing travel disruptions and helping passengers to handle unforeseen circumstances efficiently.
- Full Refund: if you request a refund, you can get full reimbursement for the parts of your trip that you didn’t use, including any tickets you only partly used. Also, if the cancellation means your trip no longer serves its original purpose, you may get a flight back to where you first started at the earliest chance.
- Rebooking: if you choose to continue your journey, US Bangla Airlines will provide rebooking on the next available flight to your destination. You also have the option to select an alternative route if there are seats available. If the next available flight is scheduled for the following day or later, US Bangla Airlines shall arrange accommodation and transfers as necessary. Furthermore, you have the right to be rebooked, including in a higher class, at no additional cost to you if that’s the only available option.
It’s crucial to keep in mind some additional considerations. If you’re rebooked on a lower class than originally booked, you’re entitled to a partial refund of the cost difference. Furthermore, if your booking involves connecting flights, US Bangla Airlines will assist in rebooking your entire journey, not only the cancelled segment.
Whether choosing a refund or arranging a new flight, the procedures are designed to ensure this process as easy as possible, understanding the stress and inconvenience caused by cancellations.
