Ryanair, easyJet, British Airways, TUI: Money Saving Expert shares how to claim flight compensation

Many holidaymakers are set to face further travel disruption as more flight cancellations are expected.

This comes as Heathrow has demanded a cap on customers as they ask airlines to reduce their services from the airport, impacting some flights from Edinburgh Airport. With this in mind, Martin Lewis and the Money Saving Expert team have shared how you could get between £110 and £520 in compensation if your flight is cancelled or delayed.

If a flight is cancelled 14 days before scheduled departure, passengers can legally request a full refund or an alternative flight under EU law that has been carried through since Brexit. These rules apply to departures from the UK or EU on any airline, as well as flights arriving in the UK or EU — although, in the latter scenario, it must be on a UK or EU airline. Customers are legally entitled to a full cash refund for a cancelled flight, and do not have to accept vouchers as an option.
