Air Passenger Rights at Frankfurt Airport (FRA)
If your flight from Frankfurt Airport was cancelled or delayed, you may be entitled to financial compensation under European air passenger rights laws, specifically EU 261/2004 (often called EC 261). These regulations protect travelers departing from any airport within the European Union, including Germany.
When Do EU 261 Rights Apply?
- Your flight departs from Frankfurt Airport (or any EU airport), regardless of airline.
- Your flight arrives at Frankfurt Airport from outside the EU, but is operated by an EU-based airline.
Compensation is not due if the delay or cancellation was caused by extraordinary circumstances such as severe weather, political instability, or air traffic control strikes.
Compensation Amounts for Delayed and Cancelled Flights
-
Flights up to 1,500 km: Up to €250 per passenger
-
Flights between 1,500 km and 3,500 km: Up to €400 per passenger
-
Flights over 3,500 km: Up to €600 per passenger
The compensation amount depends on the distance of your flight and the length of the delay upon arrival. If your flight was delayed by more than 3 hours, cancelled without sufficient notice, or you were denied boarding due to overbooking, you may qualify for compensation.
Your Rights Include:
- Right to care (meals, refreshments, hotel accommodation if overnight stay is required)
- Right to reimbursement or rerouting
- Right to compensation for delays of 3 hours or more, cancellations, or denied boarding
