Ryanair is Europe's largest low-cost carrier, operating a fleet of over 325 Boeing 737 aircraft — including 737-800s and 737 MAX 8s — with an average fleet age of 11.1 years from its Dublin hub. The Irish airline connects hundreds of destinations across Europe and North Africa, carrying more passengers annually than any other European carrier. With such a vast network and extremely high aircraft utilisation, delays and cancellations are a daily reality across the Ryanair network. Under EU regulation EC 261/2004, passengers on disrupted Ryanair flights departing from or arriving at EU airports may claim up to €600 in compensation. Whether delayed over 3 hours, cancelled at short notice, or denied boarding, you have rights Ryanair must respect. EU Regulation EC 261/2004 entitles you to fixed compensation — regardless of what the airline tells you.
When can you claim?
If your Ryanair flight arrived 3+ hours late — regardless of stated reason — you may be entitled to up to €600.
Cancellations announced less than 14 days before departure trigger the same fixed compensation amounts.
If Ryanair bumped you due to a full flight, you're entitled to compensation plus a full refund or rerouting.
In most EU countries, you can claim compensation retroactively for disrupted flights up to 6 years ago.
