Terms of use

Using this site means accepting these terms. They are short because the service is simple: information and a drafted letter, nothing more.

What the service is

What a flight! provides general information about air passenger rights and produces a draft claim letter based on what you enter. It is not legal advice, and using it does not create a lawyer-client relationship.

No guarantee of outcome

The eligibility verdict and estimated amount are informed estimates based on the information you provide. The airline, a national enforcement body or a court decides the actual outcome. We are not responsible for a refused or reduced claim.

Your responsibilities

  • Give accurate flight details — a wrong date or airport changes the answer.
  • Review the letter before sending it; you are the sender.
  • Do not use the service to submit claims you know to be false.

Changes

The service, its content and these terms may change as regulations and case law develop. Continued use means accepting the current version.

Common questions

Is the estimated amount binding?
No. It is an estimate of what the regulation provides; the airline or a regulator decides.
Who sends the claim?
You do. We never contact the airline on your behalf.
Can I reuse the letter for several flights?
Each claim should reflect its own flight. Run the checker again for a different disruption.
