You may also be entitled to compensation in accordance with the applicable Passenger Rights Regulations. Entitlement for compensation depends on the reasons that determined the cancellation. You will not be entitled to compensation if the flight is cancelled for reasons beyond our control, for example, ATC strikes, adverse weather conditions, medical emergencies, etc. which could not have been avoided even if all reasonable measures had been taken. Check to see if you are entitled to receive compensation by clicking here. Ryanair operates over 3,600 flights per day so it can take 24-96 hours for our Operations Team to establish why a flight has been cancelled. Please rest assured it is a priority for us to resolve all potential claims as quickly as we can.
If we have contacted you and sought to provide assistance as required by Regulation EU261 but you have nonetheless decided to make your own arrangements on this regard, please bear in mind you might not be entitled to be reimbursed any additional costs you incurred.
