Can I get compensated for a delayed or cancelled flight when departing from Riga International Airport?

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.
The airline informed you about the flight cancellation less than 14 days before departure.
You departed from the EU or arrived at an EU airport (when the airline is an EU-based carrier).
Your check-in for the flight was on time (usually not less than 45 minutes before the flight).
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).

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 and his family saved €720
We´re happy we bought Ifdelayed Premium annual plan. My family and I received €2400 for a delayed flight from New York recently and we got to keep 100% of the commission thanks to Ifldelayed Premium.

Kai Tapper

They got me my Money back!
It took them around 6 months to do it but it was worth the wait.
Just got a reply that they managed to get me 600£ back.
To know that someone out there was willing to go help the ones who can’t do this themselves for a small fee. It’s very comforting.
Now i know i can rely on someone if there’s delays in the future!

Made me aware of that I could get compensation for the delay. The registration process could have been easier and the fee to Ifdelayed.com is high.
