Has your flight with Fly Universal Air been cancelled or delayed by 2 hours or more? Then you are entitled to compensation of up to 600 eur per person.
You can claim compensation directly from the airline or simply and free of charge from specialist agencies.
Compensation under EC Regulation 261 applies to all flights operated by Universal Air as the airline is registered in Malta, an EU Member State.
Delayed flight with Fly Universal Air
If you experience a delay of 2 hours or more at the departure gate, Fly Universal Air must provide you with free refreshments proportionate to the length of the delay.

Cancelled flight with Fly Universal Air
If your flight is cancelled by Fly Universal Air more than 14 days before departure, you are entitled to a free change of date or a refund of the original ticket price.
However, if your flight is cancelled less than 14 days before departure, you are also automatically entitled to financial compensation up to 600 eur.
Again, compensation will only be due if the airline cancels the flight and not due to unforeseen circumstances.
