They are not responsible for their decisions

Useless service. I complained about a Ryanair flight delay. They did nothing for 5 months, and then ruled in my favor. But the airline never paid the compensation. Complaining is pointless; they'll send you to court. What for do you even exist? I knew I was entitled to compensation even without their 5-month review.

Hi Janet,

We're sorry to hear you felt that escalating your Ryanair complaint with us was a waste of time. The ADR process can be quite lengthy, and we appreciate your patience in using our service & waiting out the 5 months until we reached a decision on your case!

We know it must be frustrating if the airline has not paid out despite the fact you are owed compensation, however AviationADR does not control airlines' payout times. We're very sorry to hear Ryanair has not yet paid you, and we recommend chasing them up if so.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate all consumer feedback our services.

Highly recommended when the airline think they are right.

Highly recommended when the airline decides against you. I just followed the process and AviationADR agreed with my appeal. They even chased the airline who did not pay in the set time. Now I got the compensation after a couple of months.

Excellent service

I am incredibly impressed with the Aviation ADR platform. After Ryanair rejected our flight delay claim by burying us in a wall of technical jargon and seven defense documents, the ADR team provided a fair, clear, and objective process to review the facts. They looked past the airline's excuses and helped us secure our rightful compensation. If you are struggling with an airline dispute, I highly recommend using this service—they do a fantastic job of holding airlines accountable!

Easy, straightforward process.

It was easy to submit the claim and I was regularly updated on its progress. It took several months to resolve but I did eventually get back most of my claim. Much easier than dealing directly with a company that either gives you the run around or fobs you off.

Ryanair Complaint

Thanks to them, I received a full refund after Ryanair unfairly charged us €120 for supposedly having too many cabin bags. The staff at the gate treated us terribly, shouting, bullying, pressuring, and threatening us. That kind of behaviour is absolutely unacceptable. I would also have appreciated compensation for the distress caused by the way we were treated. It took almost a year to get the refund.

We tried to get a refund from Easy Jet & they were not going to refund us for a cancelled flight & out of pocket expenses. However, ADR assisted us with our claim & we’re successful.

Successful claim resolved against AirFrance

After initially having my EU261 claim rejected by Air France which I knew was incorrect due to the delay reason given on the day, airline citing out of control reason hence decline, AviationADR helped independently review the case and enabled a fair resolution. The process was straightforward, communication was clear, and it gave me confidence that the matter was being looked at impartially. Really pleased with the outcome and grateful for the support throughout.

Used AviationADR to resolve a baggage dispute. The determination, in my view, applied the wrong legal test to the facts of my case, and the corrections process explicitly does not allow legal reasoning to be revisited, meaning a flawed analysis cannot be challenged within the scheme. Disappointing experience that has left me with no real route to a fair outcome through ADR.

I had excellent support from Aviation ADR in getting compensation from an airline (KLM) that was resistant to paying me for a significant unforced delay Manchester to DXB that caused me to arrive at my destination more than 5 hours late. Both flights were late and I had to run from one terminal to another to just about catch the third flight in Rome. This qualified me for compensation but KLM made it difficult to claim. Aviation ADR has a very use friendly portal and process and they denied KLM's appeal against my claim. I was kept updated and although the process took several months they supported me and ensured I received my £520. I definitely recommend Aviation ADR to anyone facing a similar experience.

Great, easy to use service

Simple, well-explained procedure, clear instructions, regular updates, and very easy to use. They have really made the process of appealing an airline's decision not to compensate for a late flight very simple.
