Fly Claim

I recently wrote a short guide explaining one of the most overlooked passenger rights in Europe.

Under EU regulation 261/2004, passengers may be entitled to up to €600 compensation when a flight arrives more than 3 hours late depending on the distance.

The surprising part is that most travelers never claim anything simply because they don’t know the rule exists.

While working on Fly-Claim, I realized how confusing airline compensation rules can be for passengers, especially when airlines reject claims citing “extraordinary circumstances”.

So I wrote a simple breakdown explaining:

• when airlines must pay compensation
• when they don’t have to
• why many claims are rejected
• how passengers can verify if they’re eligible

If you're building anything in travel, legal tech, or consumer rights, I'd also be curious to hear how you think these kinds of regulations affect startups in the space.

Hi everyone,

I’m currently building Fly-Claim.com , a platform that helps passengers claim compensation when their flights are delayed or cancelled under EU Regulation EC261.

Right now my focus is getting the first users and validating the idea.

Here are the things I’m currently trying:

• answering questions about flight delays and passenger rights in travel communities

• publishing guides explaining EU261 compensation

• sharing educational content about flight disruptions

• improving the claim process using AI to analyze airline data

My goal is to make the compensation process easier for passengers who often don’t know their rights.

If you’ve launched a product before, I’d love to know:

How did you get your first users?

Hi everyone 👋

I recently launched Fly-Claim, a platform that helps air passengers claim compensation for delayed or cancelled flights under EU Regulation EC261.

Many travelers don’t realize they may be entitled to up to €600 compensation if their flight arrives more than 3 hours late.

The problem is that the claim process with airlines can be confusing and time-consuming, and passengers often give up before submitting a claim.

Fly-Claim was built to simplify this process. Travelers can check their eligibility quickly and start a claim online.

I’m currently looking for feedback from founders and travelers.

• Is the problem clear?

• Have you ever tried claiming flight compensation?
