I was very conveniently contacted by…

I was very conveniently contacted by Ifdelayed after I experienced a cancelled flight. I wasn’t aware that I could get compensation, so I was positively surprised.
It’s surely quicker to handle this through Ifdelayed.com than to figure out how to do the claim yourself.

Jonas och hans familj sparade 7.682 kr

Vi är så glada över att vi köpt Ifdelayed Premium. Min familj fick ut 25.824 kr för en försenad flight från New York i somras och tack vare vårt medlemskap fick vi behålla 100% av ersättningen själva.
