Frequently Asked Questions

What inspired you to create EU Flight Compensation?

Users can expect reliable, well-researched information about their rights as air passengers, guidance on how to claim compensation, and updates on relevant regulations.

I have been running my own law firm in London since 2011, with a significant portion of my practice dedicated to travel law and flight compensation cases.

We ensure quality through thorough research, staying updated on the latest regulations, and leveraging my extensive experience in travel law to provide accurate and valuable information.

Our future plans include expanding our educational resources, offering more in-depth guides, and increasing outreach to ensure more travelers are aware of their rights and how to claim compensation.
