Getting compensation on holiday flight delays - Thu 28th February 2013

The European Court of Justice (ECJ) recently ordered Ryanair to compensate passenger Denise McDonagh, who was forced to wait seven days for a flight from Faro to Dublin,a delay during which she spent nearly £1000 on accommodation, food and transport - details .

Having personally got caught up in the same Ryanair delay was compensated with £700 from them.

Good to know that compensation, brought about by such flight delays, has been clarified.
