Dealing with flight issues can be very annoying. However, the positive thing is that the European Union has regulations to support travelers when things don’t go as planned. If you’re traveling by air in the EU, it’s a good idea to know about these protections. They can help you out if your flight goes off course.
Being aware of your options can make dealing with travel problems less stressful. While it won’t get you to your destination quicker, it can reduce your anxiety when things don’t go as planned.
Passenger Rights under EU Regulation 261/2004
When you’re flying in the EU, rest assured that there’s help available in the case of a flight disruption. EU laws make sure airlines look after their passengers when things go wrong.
When flights are delayed or cancelled, airlines must offer you:
- Refreshments and snacks
- Accommodation if you’re stuck overnight
- Transportation to and from the hotel
- Two free phone calls, emails, or faxes
If you’re delayed for a long time or your flight is cancelled, you might also be entitled to:
- A refund
- An alternative flight
- Compensation to make up for the inconvenience
Remember to ask airline workers about these things if your plans change. They must tell you about your rights when there’s a significant delay or cancellation.
Sundair Flight Delay Compensation
Flight delays from Sundair can be very frustrating. However there’s a silver lining: if you’re delayed for more than three hours owing to the airline’s fault, you might be able to get some compensation.
Laws in the UK and EU are in your favor. You could be eligible for up to €600 per person. What matters is when you reach your destination, not when you leave. So keep an eye on your arrival time if you want to seek flight delay compensation.
The amount you receive depends on how far you’re flying. A short flight won’t be compensated as highly as a long one, even if they’re both delayed for the same duration.
Interested in learning exactly how much you could get? Take a look at the table below to see how much money you might get:
| 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 |
Sundair Flight Cancellation Compensation
Europe has laws to protect you if your flight is cancelled. Here’s what you should know:
If your flight gets cancelled within two weeks of your scheduled departure, you could be eligible for compensation up to €600. However, there’s a condition – the airline can avoid paying if they offer you an alternative flight that aligns closely with your original schedule.
The airline can avoid paying you if they arrange a replacement flight that meets the following conditions:
| 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 |
If you accept a different flight from the airline, you can still get compensation. What matters most is when you reach your final destination.
How much money you might get depends on two things:
- How far you’re flying
- The delay in your arrival
Therefore, even if you arrive later than planned, you could still be eligible for compensation.
Refer to the table below to understand better:
| 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 |
The airline might not have to compensate you if they can provide a transfer to your destination, close to the original schedule. Even if you arrive shortly after the scheduled time, you might not be eligible for flight cancellation compensation.
How to Claim Compensation from Sundair
It’s crucial to be aware of the process of claiming the compensation you deserve under EU Regulation 261/2004. Here’s the process:

- Let our experts help you. Once you submit the form, our team will handle the rest. We are well-versed in the EU laws thoroughly and will strive to secure your compensation. You only pay us if we win your case.
Remember that you have the right as a passenger to claim compensation for a cancelled or delayed flight. Regardless of whether your flight was delayed as a result of operational reasons or technical issues, if it was not caused by extraordinary circumstances such as adverse weather conditions or air traffic control decisions, you qualify for compensation.
Which Sundair Flights are Covered by EU261?
The air passenger protection regulations of the European Union are far-reaching. They cover any flight taking off from an airport within an EU country and to all flights arriving at an airport within an EU country when an EU-based airline operates the flight.
| Itinerary | Covered by EU 261 |
| Flights departing EU airports | ✅ Covered |
| Flights arriving at EU airports | ✅ Covered |
These regulations also include airlines from Iceland, Norway, and Switzerland. This means if you’re flying with any airline to, from, or within Europe, you most likely have these rights. It’s helpful to be aware of these regulations – they’re there to support you if problems occur with your flight. They make sure you’re not stranded when your trip arrangements fall through.
When You Are Not Entitled to Compensation
Sundair is not always at fault when flights are delayed or cancelled. At times, things happen that the airline can’t control, like severe weather conditions or unexpected problems.
For instance, if there’s an abrupt major weather event, an urgent situation at the airport, or a strike by air traffic controllers, Sundair isn’t responsible. These are called “extraordinary circumstances” that the airline is unable to prevent.
When these things happen, you probably won’t get any compensation. The airline isn’t viewed as doing anything wrong when these unexpected issues come up.
