Pegasus Airlines flight compensation — what are my rights?
You can claim flight compensation for a delayed or cancelled Pegasus Airlines flight on one condition: if you were flying with Pegasus Airlines from the UK or Europe.
Unfortunately, your passengers' rights are not protected by the British and European flight compensation regulations when flying to the UK/EU with a non-EU airline.
See the table below for more information on flight compensation for non-EU flights.
| Type of flight | Example | Compensation |
|---|---|---|
| Flying with a British carrier | Tokyo to London with British Airways | Yes |
| Flying with a EU carrier | Amsterdam to London with KLM | Yes |
| Flying with a non-UK/non-EU carrier from the UK | London to Tokyo with Japan Airlines | Yes |
| Flying with a non-UK/non-EU carrier to the UK | Tokyo to London with Japan Airlines | No |

Cancelled Pegasus Airlines flight — refund and compensation rules
If you were flying from the UK/EU and had a cancelled Pegasus flight, you may be entitled to compensation of up to £520, a ticket refund, or both.
When can I claim compensation for my cancelled Pegasus Airlines flight?
British and EU flight compensation regulations apply only to Pegasus flights departing from the UK/EU.
If this is the case, and if your Pegasus Airlines flight, cancelled fewer than 14 days before the scheduled departure date you are likely entitled to compensation.
Pegasus Airlines must be at fault for the cancellation for you to be eligible for compensation. See the "Extraordinary Circumstances" section of this article for more information.
When can I claim a refund for my cancelled Pegasus Airlines flight?
If your Pegasus Airlines flight from the UK/EU was cancelled, you might be eligible for a refund if:
The airline did not provide you with an alternative flight.
The airline offered you an alternative flight, but you declined the offer.
| Cancellation notice | Alternative flight | Compensation |
|---|---|---|
| Fewer than 7 days in advance | Departs 1h+ earlier or arrived 2h+ later | Yes |
| 7-14 days in advance | Departs 2h+ earlier or arrived 4h+ later | Yes |
| Fewer than 14 days in advance | No alternative flight offered | Yes + refund |

Extraordinary circumstances — can Pegasus Airlines deny me compensation?
When a third party or force majeure causes a delay or cancellation, Pegasus Airlines has the right to refuse compensation. Such situations are referred to as extraordinary circumstances.
Some of the most common extraordinary circumstances are:
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.
Please note that sometimes airlines may claim that extraordinary circumstances occurred, even if that was not the case. By doing so, the companies want to avoid paying out compensation.
