Compensation for Cancelled or Delayed Austrian Airlines Flights

In which situations can you receive compensation for Austrian Airlines flights?

You can file a compensation claim if you experienced any of the following:

• Austrian flight cancelled without at least 14 days' notice
• Delayed Austrian flight that arrived at its destination more than 3 hours late
• Austrian flight change that affected your journey
• Denied boarding due to overbooking
• Missed connection caused by an Austrian Airlines delay

These situations arise frequently with cancelled Austrian flights, suspended Austrian routes, or when an Austrian flight cancellation occurs for operational reasons.

What can you receive if your Austrian Airlines flight was cancelled or delayed?

Depending on your case, you are entitled to one or more of the following:

• A full refund of your Austrian Airlines ticket
• An alternative flight to your final destination
• Monetary compensation from Austrian Airlines under European law

Compensation amounts:

• €250 – flights under 1,500 km
• €400 – flights between 1,500 and 3,500 km
• €600 – flights over 3,500 km

If you accepted an alternative flight that arrived only 2–4 hours later, the amount may be reduced by 50%.
