Flightright costs – clear and transparent
Flightright is one of Europe’s leading air passenger rights portals. Since 2010, we have been fighting to get passengers the compensation they are entitled to for flight delays and cancellations.
Our pricing model is simple: either we get your compensation for you or our service is completely free, even if we have to go to court. Our success fee is usually 20 – 30 percent (plus VAT) of your total compensation amount.

How your payout is calculated
The amount of your payout depends on the specific claims we can assert against the airline on your behalf. For flight delays and cancellations, you are generally entitled to compensation of €250 – €600 per passenger, depending on the distance of the flight route. If your flight is canceled without a replacement provided by the airline, you may also be entitled to a refund of your ticket price.
We pay out the successfully secured compensation amount to you, minus our success fee and the applicable VAT.
Your payout in
case of success
We transfer your payout immediately after receipt of payment from the airline. We usually receive a success fee of 20 to 30 percent (+VAT) of the enforced amount. Cases in which the airline refuses to pay, which are legally more complex, require the commission of our contract lawyers. For those special cases, we charge an additional surcharge of 14 percent, only applicable in case of success.
Your payout in the event of partial success/ settlement
We only conclude a settlement with your consent. We and our contracted lawyers are happy to provide you with advice needed to help facilitate your decision. A settlement can result in lawyers’ fees and court fees outweighing the compensation amount if they are not (which is standard practice) assumed by the airline. If the lawyers’ fees exceed the compensation amount, Flightright will pay for them – so you will never have to pay anything out of your own pocket.
