Binter Canarias flight compensation (2026)

If your Binter Canarias flight was delayed 3+ hours, cancelled, or overbooked, you may be legally owed cash compensation under EU261. Here is what the law says, and how to claim it yourself without giving 35% to a claims company.

How much is a Binter Canarias claim worth?

Per passenger, for arrival delays of 3 hours or more, cancellations without adequate notice, and involuntary denied boarding — under Regulation (EC) No 261/2004.

The airline will say "extraordinary circumstances"

That is a defence the airline must PROVE, and it bears the burden. Technical faults, the airline's own staff strikes, and knock-on delays generally do NOT count. Make them show contemporaneous evidence.

How far back can I claim?

Time limits vary by country — e.g. Germany: 3 years, counted from the end of the calendar year of the flight. France: 5 years. England & Wales: 6 years (Scotland: 5). Older flights are often still claimable.
