Air Passenger Rights & Flight Compensation
If your TAP Portugal flight was delayed, cancelled, or overbooked, you may be entitled to compensation under EU Regulation 261/2004 (commonly known as EU 261 or EC 261). This regulation provides strong protection for air passengers travelling from an EU airport or arriving in the EU with an EU-based carrier such as TAP Portugal. To qualify, your flight must have either departed from an EU airport (regardless of the destination or airline) or arrived at an EU airport on an EU-registered airline. For example, if your TAP Portugal flight originated in Lisbon or Porto, or if you were flying from New York to Lisbon with TAP, you are covered by EU 261 protections.
In the event of a flight delay of more than three hours, cancellation, or denied boarding due to overbooking, you could be eligible for compensation. The amount of compensation depends on the flight distance:
- For flights up to 1,500 km: €250 per passenger
- For flights between 1,500 km and 3,500 km: €400 per passenger
- For flights over 3,500 km: €600 per passenger
These rights apply unless the disruption was caused by extraordinary circumstances beyond the airline’s control, such as severe weather or air traffic control strikes.
If your TAP Portugal flight was cancelled, you also have the right to choose between a full refund or alternative transportation to your final destination. In addition, passengers are entitled to care and assistance, including meals, refreshments, hotel accommodation (if necessary), and communication facilities while waiting.
