Flight delay compensation: Your rights if your flight is delayed

Summer is just around the corner and many holidaymakers are looking forward to jetting off abroad this year. A week in the sunshine is needed for many after two years of travel disruption due to Covid-19.

However, even the best-laid plans can be subject to some disruption, flight delays being one of them. And while there is nothing worse than being stuck at an airport when you're supposed to be on a plane to your destination, there are things you can do if your flight is delayed.

In fact, you can claim hundreds of pounds in compensation if you're delayed on a flight covered by UK law. Depending on the circumstances, you could be entitled to claim between £220 and £520 if you're delayed by three hours or more.
