About Vueling
What are you entitled to if your flight with Vueling is delayed?
In the case of a flight delay of more than 2 hours, the Vueling ground staff must offer you free meal and drink tickets according to the waiting time required. In addition, the user is entitled to two telephone calls, fax messages or e-mails.
In the event that an overnight stay is necessary, the Vueling company must provide accommodation, daily allowance and travel to and from the airport from the place of accommodation.

It may also be the case that Vueling must provide you with a return flight to the first point of departure in the event that you have already made the first leg and miss the connecting flight.
What compensation am I entitled to if Vueling's flight is delayed?
Compensation for delay of a flight from Vueling
The delay entitling you to compensation is calculated according to the time of arrival at your destination. If you arrive at your destination 3 hours or more after the scheduled time, you are also entitled to claim financial compensation, except if the delay is due to extraordinary circumstances such as weather conditions. The amount to be received will vary depending on the distance to the destination.
- Up to 1500 km, it is 250 euros.
- Between 1501 and 3500 km, it is 400 euros.
- If the distance exceeds 3500 km, then the amount to be claimed is 600 euros.
What should Vueling compensate for the delay becomes flight cancellation?
In the event of cancellation by the air carrier Vueling, a passenger must be compensated for a flight if less than 15 days' notice is given before the scheduled time of the flight. The only exception is if the cancellation is due to extraordinary circumstances that could not have been avoided (political instability, weather conditions incompatible with the performance of the flight, safety risks, unexpected flight safety deficiencies, airport congestion, air traffic management and strikes affecting the air carrier's operations).
The only way Vueling can do this is if the flight cancellation is carried out between two weeks and seven days before the scheduled departure time. In addition to that, Vueling must ensure that alternative transport is offered to allow for a departure no more than two hours before the original departure time of the flight. As this is a company problem and the passenger has been checked, it is up to Vueling to provide a solution, by law.
If the passenger is notified less than seven days before the scheduled departure time, in addition to not being provided with another flight, then the Vueling passenger can claim under similar conditions as for the delay. The criterion will be according to its extent for a higher or lower amount with respect to the cancelled flight.
Thus, if the cancellation has occurred on flights of less than 1,500 km, the cancellation claim should be EUR 250. For intra-Community flights, i.e. flights longer than 1,500 km, the amount will be up to 400 euros. For transoceanic flights, generally between 1,500 and 3,500 km, as well as other flights not included in the previous points, the amount will rise to 600 euros. Compensation is paid by bank transfer and should not be delayed for more than 21 days, in any case, if the claim is successful.
