Standard and Legal Action Fees explained

What is included in the standard fee?

Our Standard Fee covers everything involved with getting your compensation in a standard claim.

Our team of 350+ AirHelpers are available to handle every element of your claim, from validating your documents and confirming details against weather and flight reports to putting together a case and negotiating with airlines.

We'll keep you updated every step of the way, and we're also available 24/7 in case you have questions.


What is included in the Legal Action Fee?

If an airline won't cooperate we're prepared to fight for your rights before a court.

Going to court can cost up to €1,000: from lawyers to court fees or official document translations, there are a lot of bills you'll never see. Instead we add a small 15% supplement to help offset these costs.

Remember, we will never take more than 50% of your compensation in our fees. And, if we don't win, you won't have lost a cent.
