At AirHelp, we think passengers deserve fair compensation when their travel plans are torn apart by flight delays or cancellations. If you were flying in or out of the UK or Europe you could be owed up to £520 per person (€600 in the EU), thanks to air passenger rights laws. Click below to start checking how much you're entitled to in Luxair delay compensation and Luxair cancellation compensation. Our expert team is ready to help you claim it.
Regardless of whether you're at home or abroad when you find out about your Luxair flight cancellation, you're going to have a lot of questions and concerns. The first thing to know is that Luxair should find you a new flight, or offer you a full refund.
But because flight cancellations almost always play havoc with your travel plans, you should check whether you're also entitled to claim Luxair cancelled flight compensation to help make up for the disruption.
Under UK and EU regulations, Luxair should pay passengers up to £520 per person when they cancel flights at late notice — that is, any flight cancellation less than 14 days before it was due to depart.
Exceptions:
Luxair will not have to pay compensation if they were able to offer a replacement flight with similar departure and arrival times to the original. You can check the exact requirements on our flight cancellation compensation page.
Airlines also don't have to pay compensation if extraordinary circumstances were at play. That means that if an unusual situation occurred that was outside of the airline's control but forced a cancellation, there's no Luxair flight cancellation compensation owed. Typical examples include bad weather or a strike by air traffic control.

Whenever you're kept waiting by Luxair flight delays, it's worth checking whether you're entitled to compensation for your time. If Luxair is responsible for the delay, both UK and EU regulations say that passengers are owed up to £520 per person when they're delayed by 3 hours or more.
When you're claiming flight delay compensation, Luxair will check what time the flight arrived at the final destination. That's because for flight delay claims it is the time that you arrived that is important, not the time of departure. AirHelp owns one of the most comprehensive databases of flight stats available, so we can always back up Luxair flight delay compensation claims with the exact delay time.
Exceptions:
Airlines like Luxair do not have to pay out compensation if there's some external reason for the delay. That means delays caused by bad weather, an incident at the airport, or air traffic control strikes are not eligible for compensation. These kind of situations are called extraordinary circumstances.

EC 261 applies to almost all of Luxair's flights, since Luxair has their HQ in the EU. The regulation lays out the care passengers can expect from airlines in the event of flight delays, cancellations, and overbookings, and it clearly states in what situations passengers are owed compensation.
Travelers are allowed to claim compensation for past flights under EC 261 — often you can still claim for flights in the past 3 years.
