OTS Successful delayed flight compensation claim against European airline

Posted onAugust 22, 2016

Our client, RS, planned a flight with a European airline to Armenia by flying from London to Vienna, and then from Vienna to Zvartnots, Armenia, of which her return route would be the opposite. Upon returning home, our client’s flight to Vienna was delayed at Zvartnots airport and because of the time lost our client missed her connecting flight from Vienna International airport to London. Our client’s flight was rebooked onto another flight back to London which was over three hour later. Our client then approached OTS Solicitors and instructed the firm to make a claim for compensation from the airline responsible for the delay on her behalf.

We argued that Regulation (EC) No 261/2004 gives the sufferers of delayed flights the right to compensation as the rescheduled flight was delayed by over three hours and that the distance between the two designations accumulates over 1,500 kilometres. The airline replied to OTS Solicitors and granted our client the required amount in compensation under Regulation (EC) No 261/2004.

This case was a success due to the application carried out by OTS Lawyers, Oshin Shahiean.

I recently used OTS Solicitor's and I couldn't be happier with the service they provided. Ruth, in particular, was an absolute gem, helping me through a difficult part of my life where I needed to sell a property with my ex-partner. Despite my ex-partner dragging her feet on agreeing to the sale, Ruth was there every step of the way to provide guidance and support. The process did take over a year, but thanks to Ruth and the team at OTS Solicitor's, I was able to achieve a successful outcome. Not only did I manage to sell the property, but I was also able to recoup all my legal fees - something I never thought would be possible. Throughout the entire process, Ruth was professional, friendly, and always available to answer any questions I had. Her expertise and attention to detail were invaluable, and I truly feel that I couldn't have done it without her. Overall, I would highly recommend OTS Solicitor's to anyone in need of legal advice and support. Their team of experts, including Ruth, are second to none, and I am over the moon with the outcome of my case. Thank you, OTS Solicitor's, for all your help! Case Workers: Ruth Rauch
