Martin Lewis has issued a warning to anybody who has flown on a EU flight in the past 'six years' - and it could see you pocket a tidy sum of money if you're affected
Martin Lewis has sounded the alarm for anyone who's taken a flight within the EU in the "past six years", highlighting a potential £520 warning. The money-saving expert delved into your rights as an air passenger when faced with delays or cancellations on European Union flights during his latest BBC Sounds podcast episode.
Mr Lewis then clarified: "Yes, as you got off the plane after three hours. No, as it landed two hours 45 late, and the delay was the airport's, not the airline's fault. Yes, but only if you took off three hours late, as well as landing two hours 45 late. So you see, the question is all, what is the three hours? Is it yes, the three hours is when you got off the plane? ".
Mr Lewis continued: "Now there is a little bit of wriggle room in, in what portion of the airline's fault. I think that you would have, the most important criteria here is the timing is how late the doors of the plane open. So you got it wrong. So as you got off the plane over three hours late, you are entitled to the fixed compensation. Now the airline's fault argument is pretty plain that because the two hours 45 was late, it is very easy to argue.
Adding further, he said: "So American Airlines going to the States from London counts. American Airlines returning to London from the States does not count because it's not an EU airline. You can go back six years. So if you've had a delay in any time in the last six years, you can go back six years to apply for this compensation. Remember, it has to be the airline's fault. Five years in Scotland.
