Claim from Ryanair
Ryanair massively rejects direct claims: more than 90% of passengers who claim without an intermediary receive nothing. With an agency, response time is 60-90 days; claiming alone can stretch to 2 years. Difficulty VERY HIGH — professional support is essential.
Common incidents
- Rejects most direct claims
- Delays over 3 hours on high-traffic routes
- Frequent overbooking in peak season
Response time
60-90 days (with agency), up to 2 years (direct)
Mass rejection. Without intermediary: >90% receive nothing
Common rejection reasons
- Mass rejection without real legal justification
- Claim extraordinary circumstances (weather, ATC) indiscriminately
- Offer vouchers instead of cash compensation
- Request additional documentation to delay the process until the passenger gives up
Tips to claim
- Never claim directly from Ryanair: systematic rejection means >90% of passengers receive nothing without an intermediary.
- Keep your boarding pass and booking confirmation — they are essential evidence.
- If Ryanair offers a voucher instead of cash, you have the right to refuse it and demand monetary payment under EU261.
