How to submit your flight delay compensation from Austrian Airlines

You expect the best services whenever you fly with Austria’s largest carrier. Austrian Airlines transported 13.9 million passengers in 2018 and currently operates a global route network of about 130 destinations.

But not all air trips operated by Austrian Airlines are as smooth and straightforward as people would want.

Did you travel with this airline and your flight was delayed or cancelled? If the reason for the disruption was under Austrian Airlines’ control, they should provide reimbursement for a delayed/cancelled flight. As mentioned in the European Regulation EU261, if the air trip is longer than 1,500 km and delayed by more than 3 hours, you should receive compensation up to €600.
