Fixed compensation
Do not assume it is automatically due. The cause, applicable passenger-rights regime and the airline's response all matter.

Operational conditions can change quickly. Check the airline and airport for live status before travelling.
Compensation is only one part of your rights
Traffic-management delay information does not itself determine passenger compensation. The individual flight outcome, route, carrier and applicable rules remain necessary.
Refund or rerouting
A cancellation can create travel-remedy rights even where an extraordinary circumstance prevents fixed compensation.
Care and expenses
Where the applicable rules provide a duty of care, reasonable meals, accommodation or transport can remain separate from compensation.
What to do now
Check your airline for flight-specific information and retain the actual arrival time and carrier explanation if materially delayed.
Check the facts of your flight
AeroDue separates the cause, itinerary and operating airline so passengers do not confuse an airport-wide incident with an automatic compensation result.
