From delay to payout in three steps

You spend about two minutes on the details. Our claims team handles everything else, from the first letter to the airline to the final payment.

Animation: a suitcase is checked in, scanned for the documents a claim needs, and arrives at the payout desk.

  1. Station 01 · Check-in

    Tell us about your flight

    Enter your route and a few details. It takes about two minutes, and you'll see right away whether your flight qualifies and how much you could get.

  2. Station 02 · X-ray

    We build and fight your case

    We check the flight data and the rules that apply, file the claim with the airline and answer every reply. If the airline still refuses, our partner lawyers can take it further.

  3. Station 03 · Payout

    You get paid

    When the airline pays, we transfer your compensation minus our success fee. If we don't win, you pay nothing. It's that simple.

1A–5A · First class
Gate B

On your own

  1. Stressful and confusing

    You have to work out which rules apply and argue your case with the airline by yourself.

  2. Slow

    Claims can drag on for months, with long silences and endless back-and-forth.

  3. Costly if it goes to court

    Going to court alone can mean legal fees, even when you're in the right.

  4. Heavy on paperwork

    Finding the right forms, evidence and deadlines can feel like a second job.

  5. Easy for airlines to ignore

    Individual claims are often rejected or left unanswered, in the hope that passengers give up.
