You can get compensated if:

If you got an alternative flight and arrived at your final destination significantly later than the original flight was planned.

You departed from the EU or arrived at an EU airport (when the airline is an EU-based carrier).

Your flight was less than 3 years ago as many countries have a flight delay application limit that is less than 3 years.
The airline is responsible for the delay (the circumstances for the delay were under the airline’s control).

Value to our customers
Using Ifdelayed gives true value to our customers. Their service is easy to use and helps passengers claim compensation in the event of a delayed or cancelled flight. It also saves time, as it can be difficult to claim compensation on your own to the airline. It’s also valuable for us to have a partner who can guide our clients when it comes to their rights and options in these cases.

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.
