Germanwings Flight Delays Compensation
Flight delays bother Germanwings just as much as you. They also have a schedule to stick to, after all. However, not all delays are the same - and when the airline is responsible, it’s only fair that passengers get compensated for their trouble.
That’s what the EU Regulation 261/2004 is all about. You can get up to 600€ in compensation for your delayed flight with Germanwings, depending on the length of your journey. To be eligible, you must have reached your destination at least 3 hours after the originally scheduled time of arrival, and the airline must be responsible for the delay.
The easiest and fastest way to check your eligibility is to fill out your flight details in our Compensation Calculator. In less than 2 minutes, you will know whether you are entitled to money from the airline or not.
At ClaimCompass, we have already helped tons of passengers get their compensation from Germanwings. All you have to do is let us do the work and we’ll get your money for you.

Germanwings Flight Cancellation Compensation
Germanwings also cancels some of their flights - sometimes because of circumstances out of their control, in which case they are not obligated to pay compensation to their passengers. But in cases that do not qualify as “extraordinary circumstances”, you could be owed up to 600€ from the airline.
The conditions ensuring your right to compensation when Germanwings cancels your flight are slightly more complicated than for flight delays. In short, if the airline is responsible for the cancellation, they haven’t given you at least a 14-day notice, and you reach your final destination late (or don’t reach it at all), then it’s very likely that you are eligible under the EU Regulation.
If this happened to you, you can fill out our Compensation Calculator to verify if you can get compensated and how much money you can expect from Germanwings. ClaimCompass will take care of everything for you, from submitting your claim to Germanwings to securing your money.
