How much compensation for a 3 hour flight delay?

Flight Delay 3 Hours: What Compensation?

Okay, so, flight delayed 3 hours? Compensation time? Let’s unpack that, yeah?

Basically, if they screwed up and your flight’s 3+ hours late, you might be owed cash. Airlines, ugh.

Flight Delay & Compensation:

• Delay: Over 3 hours.
• Cause: Airline’s fault.
• Compensation: Up to £520. Distance matters.
• Destination: Impacts the amount.

Right, so my personal run-in? Oh man.

Picture this: Stansted Airport, July 15th. Supposed to be jetting off to Barcelona, sunshine ahoy! Nope. Delayed…for ages. We sat there, grumbling, £30 gone on overpriced airport coffee and a sad sandwich. Turns out, “technical issue” on the plane. Classic.

I didn’t know anything about compensation then. Idiot me.

But now I know, depends where you’re flying. Barcelona from London? Smaller payout than say, New York. Flight distance, innit?

So, if you’re stuck in that airport chair, fuming, find out WHY. Airline’s fault? GET YOUR MONEY. Learned my lesson, finally. Never again paying for overpriced snacks with out asking for my due payment. Never.
