Journeys involving connecting flights are some of the most stressful for air travellers as the risk of missing a connecting flight is high.
If you travel on several connecting flights that are part of a single booking and, due to a delay, cancellation or denied boarding, you miss the next flight in your booking and arrive at your final destination more than 3 hours late, you are entitled to compensation for the missed connection.

Seek your rights for a missed connecting flight through Aeroisk
The process of recovering compensation for a missed connection consists of three main steps:
Why choose Aeroisk as your trusted partner to collect your flight delay compensation:
The process of collecting monetary compensation for missed flights follows 3 steps:
Important! Only if the airline has successfully paid the compensation, you will owe us a commission of 25% of the amount paid.
Once you have registered a compensation claim on the Aeroisk website and provided us with everything we need, we will take out-of-court action to collect your compensation.
The time limit for the airline to respond to a claim for monetary compensation is two months. It sometimes happens that airlines respond at the last minute, or do not respond to claims at all, in order to discourage passengers from going ahead with the procedure for collecting their compensation, but this should not discourage you because we are aware that it is done for this very purpose.
If the carrier refuses to pay compensation or fails to respond to a claim within the time limit, we will take the necessary follow-up action against the carrier and, if we consider that the reason why the airline is not paying compensation is unfounded and unjustified, Aeroisk will, at its own expense, bring an action in the competent court in the European Union, with all costs of lawyers' fees, court and other fees in the course of the action being borne by Aeroisk.
You can monitor the progress of your claim at any time through your personal account on our website, and you will receive an email update whenever there is any news about your claim.
For further details, please refer to our Terms and Conditions.
It is necessary to keep a flight document - reservation or boarding pass. Anything else needed will be automatically generated on our site once you register your claim.
If your flight is delayed because of the airline, you are entitled to compensation of between €250 and €600, depending on the length of the route.
If the airline cancels your flight and notifies you less than 14 days before the departure date, then you can claim compensation.
If you miss a connection and arrive at your final destination more than 3 hours late, then you can claim compensation.
If you turned up on time for your flight and with all the necessary documents for the journey, but the airline still denied you boarding, then you can claim compensation.
Even in cases where you are travelling on business, the compensation is due to you personally, as the Regulation provides for these compensations for the inconvenience caused to the passenger.
Sometimes claims are settled very quickly and compensation can be obtained within two weeks. In other cases, however, where administrative and judicial action has to be taken, it is not possible to say exactly when compensation will be paid, as the procedures vary in length.
For each new update on your claim, you will receive an email with details and a timeline of the stage of the procedure. At any time, you can log in to your account on our website and check the status of your claim.
Our remuneration is 25% of the value of the compensation and other amounts claimed in the claim (e.g. additional costs, value of tickets) and is payable only when the airline pays the amount. For detailed information on the cost of our service, you can view here.
The the compensation amount depends on the length of the route:
Filing a claim takes no more than 5 minutes. You fill in the flight number and date and follow the registration steps. The process is easy and convenient, and our colleagues are available if you do have any questions or need assistance.
Airlines very often try to avoid paying compensation by claiming that there were some extraordinary circumstances. This shouldn't put you off, because it usually turns out that this is not the case. So register your claim and leave the rest to us.
