Air Passenger Rights: Delays, Cancellations, and Compensation
If your Saudia flight is delayed or cancelled, you may be entitled to compensation under EU Regulation 261/2004 (EU 261/EC 261), depending on the origin and circumstances of your journey. This regulation applies if your flight departed from an airport within the European Union, or if your flight arrived in the EU from a non-EU country and was operated by an EU-based airline. Since Saudi Arabian Airlines is a non-EU airline, EU 261 compensation rights apply only to flights that originate from within the EU.
Under EU 261, you could receive compensation for delays of three hours or more, cancellations, or denied boarding due to overbooking, unless the disruption was caused by extraordinary circumstances. The compensation amounts are as follows:
- €250 per passenger for flights up to 1,500 kilometers
- €400 per passenger for flights between 1,500 and 3,500 kilometers
- €600 per passenger for flights over 3,500 kilometers
To claim your compensation, make sure to gather your flight number, booking details, and keep your boarding pass or e-ticket. Document all communications with the airline regarding your delay or cancellation. Compensation eligibility depends on the specific circumstances of your flight disruption.
