Which rules cover Freebird Airlines
- EU261€250–€600
Freebird Airlines flights that leave the EU, Iceland, Norway or Switzerland. Its flights into the EU from elsewhere are not covered, because Freebird Airlines is not an EU airline.
- UK261£220–£520
Freebird Airlines flights that leave the UK (not its flights into the UK).
- SHY-YOLCU€250–€600
All Freebird Airlines flights that leave Turkey, and all Freebird Airlines flights into Turkey.
Amounts are per passenger and depend on the flight distance.
Not owed when the cause was outside the airline’s control: bad weather, air traffic control, security, strikes by airport staff. Technical faults and the airline’s own staff usually are its responsibility.
