Work out whether a delayed, cancelled, or overbooked flight likely owes you compensation — and draft the claim with the right rule cited. Use when asked about flight delay compensation, my flight was cancelled/delayed/overbooked, am I owed money for this flight, or how do I claim EU261. Produces an eligibility read against the likely-applicable regime (EU261/UK261/US DOT-style and airline duty-of-care), the amount band, the claim letter with flight details, and the evidence to attach — flagging what to verify because rules and thresholds change.
🗣 Say this to your agent
“My flight from Paris landed 4 hours late — am I owed EU261 compensation?”“Airline cancelled my flight with one day's notice. What can I claim?”“I got bumped off an overbooked flight — write me the claim.”“Missed my connection because the first leg was delayed. Am I entitled to anything?”“They blamed 'operational reasons' for a 5-hour delay — does that count?”
What to give it
▸The flight — airline, flight number, date, full route (from → to), and any connections
▸What happened — delayed (how many hours at final destination), cancelled (how much notice), denied boarding/overbooked, or missed connection
▸The times — scheduled vs actual departure/arrival
▸The reason given — weather, technical, staffing, strike, "operational"
▸Where you are based / flying from — this drives which regime applies
✅ The bar it holds itself to
Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.
✓Identifies which regime likely applies from the route and airline
✓Measures delay at the final destination, not departure
✓Separates refund/rebooking, duty-of-care, and cash compensation
✓Tests the airline's stated reason against the "extraordinary circumstances" carve-out
✓Amounts and thresholds are given as bands and flagged "verify current rules"
✓The claim letter includes flight details, the rule, and a specific amount
✓An escalation path (ADR/regulator/claims) is included
⚠️ What it refuses to do
**Asserting an exact payout** as fixed — sums and thresholds change; give a band and say verify.
**Confusing a refund with compensation** — they're separate rights.
**Measuring departure delay** when the rule keys off arrival.
**Accepting "weather/operational" at face value** without testing whether it truly waives compensation.
**Vague "your flight was late, pay me"** with no flight number, times, or rule cited.
