By filing a claim with Iberia, get compensation after a delayed flight
An integrated form for an express complaint
If the Iberia plane does not leave the tarmac at the scheduled time, the flight will therefore be delayed, the reception and services provided at the airport, such as meals and drinks, are necessary, but do not fully compensate the inconvenience experienced by travelers. EU legislation, through Regulation EC 261/2004, establishes that passengers affected by a delay are eligible for a fixed compensation varying between 250 and 600 euros.
The anticipation of a perfect trip can quickly crumble in the face of the unexpected of an air delay, forcing passengers to nimbly revise their plans. This situation has already happened to thousands of passengers preparing to fly with Iberia.
Arguably, delayed flights are an inevitable part of the travel experience in the modern world.
Passengers, faced with flight delays, find themselves in a position where their control over the situation is practically non-existent. Reduced to passively waiting for a rerouting solution, they depend entirely on the airline for the management of this unforeseen event.
In these moments of forced waiting, the responsibility of the company increases, being required to provide basic necessities such as food and accommodation, where applicable. This obligation underlines the company’s duty of care towards its passengers, ensuring that even in the absence of control over events, travelers do not find themselves neglected and that their basic needs are respected, offering them a semblance of comfort in the ‘uncertainty.
Many passengers are unaware of the very existence of their right to compensation in the event of a significant delay to their flight. This lack of awareness can deprive them of claiming this right and obtaining the amount to which they could be entitled according to the regulations in force, in particular those of the European Union.
Whether or not you are eligible for this compensation depends on several key factors, including the delay in flight arrival, the route traveled, and the circumstances surrounding the delay.
Under European standards, a delay in arrival of three hours or more usually entitles passengers to compensation.
Calculate your compensation
The compensation scale in the event of a plane delay is designed in such a way that the amount allocated increases with the distance of the trip. Indeed, European regulations establish different levels of compensation depending on the duration of the flight.
For short distance flights, less than 1500 km, the compensation is 250 euros. Between 1500 and 3500 km, it rises to 400 euros. Beyond 3500 km, it reaches 600 euros.
Unlock your compensation
Iberia may be in a position to reject compensation claims where the delay is attributed to force majeure. Force majeure encompasses events completely beyond the control of the airline:
Unsuitable climate for plane takeoff, volcanic explosions, earthquakes, large-scale strikes, terrorist incidents, wars, unexpected closures of air terminals, global epidemics, restrictive measures issued by the authorities and environmental disasters (floods, cyclones).
