Terms of Use

Last updated: 31 May 2026

These terms govern your use of Flight Compensation Checker (the "site"). By using the site you agree to them. If you do not agree, please don't use the site. Please also read our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy and Disclaimer, which form part of these terms.

What this site is

The site is a free, informational tool. It helps you check whether a flight disruption may qualify for compensation under regimes such as EU261, UK261, APPR, the Montreal Convention and others, estimates a possible amount, and helps you draft a claim you can send to the airline yourself, in your own name. Everything runs in your browser.

Not legal advice

The site provides general information and estimates only and is not legal advice, and using it does not create any professional or advisory relationship. We are not a law firm, a claims-management company, or your agent, and we do not submit, manage, or pursue claims on your behalf. Eligibility and the amount actually payable depend on the airline's response, the specific facts, and sometimes a court or regulator. For advice on your situation, consult a qualified professional. Always verify time limits and details yourself before acting.

No guarantee of outcome

We do not guarantee that any claim will succeed, that any amount shown will be paid, or that the information is complete, current, or error-free. Estimates are illustrative, not a promise of payment.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • use the site unlawfully, or to submit false or fraudulent claims;
  • copy, scrape, resell, or build a competing dataset from the site's content without permission;
  • attempt to disrupt, attack, reverse-engineer, or gain unauthorised access to the site or its infrastructure;
  • misrepresent the site as your own or remove attribution.

Intellectual property

The site's content, design, and code are owned by us or our licensors and protected by law. Airline names are used only to identify carriers for your reference; we are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or partnered with any airline, and no trademark ownership is claimed over them.

Third-party links

The site links to airlines' and other third parties' websites (for example, where to submit your claim). We don't control those sites and aren't responsible for their content, accuracy, or privacy practices. Following a link is at your own risk.

Liability

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes our liability where it would be unlawful to do so — this includes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded under English law, including your non-excludable rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

Subject to that, because the site is provided free of charge and for information only, it is provided "as is" without warranties, and to the fullest extent permitted by law we are not liable for any loss arising from your use of (or inability to use) the site or from reliance on its information or estimates — including any rejected, reduced, time-barred, or unpaid claim. You are responsible for checking the facts, deadlines, and the airline's own requirements before you act.

Changes and availability

We may update the site or these terms at any time; we'll change the "Last updated" date above when we do, and continued use means you accept the changes. We may also change, suspend, or withdraw the site without notice.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction, without affecting any mandatory consumer-protection rights you have where you live.
