Did You Know You Can Claim Flight Compensation Up to 3 Years Back?

Many passengers experience frustration when a flight is canceled or delayed but don’t take further action, assuming nothing can be done. However, under the EU Regulation 261/2004 and international rules applicable in Turkey, you are entitled to claim **flight compensation for up to 3 years retroactively**. What does this mean? If you had a flight within the past 3 years that was canceled, delayed for more than 3 hours, or caused you to miss a connection, you may be eligible for compensation ranging from €250 to €600 depending on the distance of your journey. And this right doesn’t only apply to flights departing from EU countries—it can also cover certain flights from Turkey, especially with EU-based airlines. Most passengers think, “That flight was years ago, it’s too late now.” But that’s not true. Retroactive claims are designed exactly for situations like this, ensuring passengers are compensated for past disruptions. All you need are your flight details (reservation code, ticket number, date) to file a claim. It’s important to note the exceptions: extraordinary circumstances such as severe weather, natural disasters, or air traffic control strikes may exempt airlines from liability. However, technical faults, operational problems, or crew shortages are considered the airline’s responsibility—and in those cases, compensation is absolutely due. Today, many passengers use a simple compensation claim form to check their past flights for eligibility. So, if you thought your rights were lost, think again—they’re still valid. Don’t wait any longer: review your past flights and claim your retroactive flight compensation today!
