Air Europa is a well-known airline for international connections, but its passengers can also face delays, cancellations, denied boarding, or baggage issues. Here is a complete guide to know your rights and how to get the refund or compensation you are entitled to, with the support of Sos Viaggiatore.

According to EU Regulation 261/2004, you are entitled to compensation if:
- Delay of more than 3 hours upon arrival.
- Causes of the delay attributable to Air Europa (excluding extraordinary circumstances like bad weather).
- Financial compensation: Between €250 and €600, depending on the flight distance.
