Extraordinary circumstances — can LEVEL deny me compensation?
We call extraordinary circumstances situations in which the delay or cancellation is not the fault of the airline. If any of the below apply to your flight disruption, you might not be entitled to flight compensation.
Bad weather conditions, such as thick fog, heavy rain, or thunderstorms.
A strike, most often specifically within the aviation industry (for example, a strike of air traffic control workers at a specific airport).
However, a strike of the airline's crew is not considered an extraordinary circumstance!
Political circumstances, such as a terrorist attack or general security risk due to political unrest.
Natural disasters, including volcanic eruptions and hurricanes.
A collision between the aircraft and birds or other foreign objects.
An ill or unruly passenger.
Flight delays caused by the airport staff, such as extraordinarily long queues to security checks.
=> Your claim was denied by the airline because of an extraordinary circumstance and you don’t believe them? Claim with Flight-Delayed.co.uk, we will investigate your claim and let you know if you are eligible for flight compensation.
How long do I have to claim my LEVEL compensation and refund?
If you were flying from the UK, you have 6 years to claim compensation and refund. The exception is Scotland, where you have 5 years to claim.
Depending on the flight route, the time limit to submit a claim might vary as it depends on: the law of the country of departure, the law of the country of arrival, as well as the law of the country where the airline is headquartered.
