Sun Express Flight Cancellation Compensation Rights

SunExpress Airlines can cancel a flight for several reasons. If SunExpress Airlines canceled the flight without prior notice of at least two weeks, you might ask for reimbursement or a ticket refund from the airline under Regulation EC No. 261/2004.

The amount of compensation to be claimed for a canceled flight is between 125€ and 600€ depending upon…

  • days you were informed before
  • the length of delay, and
  • route distance

If SunExpress’s flight is canceled, you have two options to choose from…

  • apply for a refund, or
  • ask for an alternative flight

If your alternate flight delays for more than 2 hours, you could be eligible for compensation under EU law.

Whereas, for flight cancellation due to extraordinary circumstances, you could not claim compensation.

Sometimes airlines may refuse to pay any compensation and claim that exceptional circumstances happened, even if it wasn’t the case.

In such situations, Use our free flight compensation checker tool and get to know whether you are eligible for Sunexpress canceled flight compensation or not.

Was your flight cancelled without any notice?

Claim Compensation

SunExpress missed flight connection; how does it work?

You may be entitled to SunExpress missed connecting flight compensation under the European Union Regulation EC 261 if …

  1. the entire air travel is booked under one booking reference
  2. and the delay at the final airport was more than three hours

You could claim up to 600€ for a missed flight. To be eligible for compensation, you must satisfy the above criteria.

Am I eligible for SunExpress overbooking compensation?

Overbooking is a situation in which an airline sells more flight tickets than the available seats on the plane. They are allowed to do this because they know passengers sometimes don’t show up at the airport.

If everyone arrives at the airport, they are forced to leave someone behind. So if you have denied boarding involuntarily due to overbooking, you could be eligible for compensation under EU law.

Whereas to claim compensation…

  1. it is necessary for you to not give up your seat voluntarily in exchange for some vouchers,
  2. the departure or arrival airport belongs to the EU member states

In case you were offered an alternate flight of your choice but reached the destination later than two hours, you could ask for compensation.
