How to complain about an Emirates flight delay or cancellation?

With Emirates Manage My Booking UK, you can amend and manage all of your travel-related needs online. If you're on a specific diet, book a special meal, upgrade your ticket, and add a hotel or rental car.

If the connecting Emirates flight is delayed:

The airline extends a complimentary second flight offer to you. You may also file a claim for compensation for a missing flight with Emirates. That is contingent upon how long the flight was delayed. Additionally, the compensation amount varies based on the length of the travel and the specifics of your case.

Recover damages for a delayed Emirates flight:

If there are circumstances beyond our control that lead you to be more than three hours late to your destination, you could be eligible for reimbursement.

You do not have any further contractual rights as a result of this notification. To file a claim, you can get in direct contact with our customer service department by visiting our website at www.emirates.com/feedback.

Available Assistance on Delay Flights:

Two phone calls, faxes, e-mails and meals in a reasonable amount of time relative to the waiting time. Accommodation, if a stay of one or more nights, or a stay longer than you had intended, becomes necessary when the reasonably expected time of departure of the new flight is one day or more later than the scheduled departure date of your cancelled flight, you will be entitled to hotel accommodations and surface transportation between the airport.

Compensation for Postponed Flights:

If the delay exceeds five hours and you choose not to board the delayed flight, we will reimburse you for the portion of the fare you paid for your ticket that you did not use. If the delay causes the delayed flight to become unusable for your original travel plans, we will also reimburse you for the portion of the fare you did use. If applicable, we will transport you to the first point of departure specified in your contract of carriage on the earliest flight that has adequate space available.

Payment for Postponed Flights:

If you are delayed more than three hours reaching your destination and it is due to circumstances that we can control as opposed to unusual events that were unavoidable despite taking all reasonable precautions, you can be eligible for reimbursement. If a re-routing to your ultimate destination is provided and the scheduled arrival time does not exceed the scheduled arrival time of the original flight, compensation will be reduced by fifty percent.

Reducing:

If, during your rerouting, you are seated in a class lower than the one for which you purchased your ticket due to a lengthy delay or any other reason, including but not limited to the replacement of an aircraft with a smaller passenger cabin, you will be eligible for reimbursement in the following ways:

For flights between 1,500 and 3,500 km, 50% of the appropriate fee will be charged.

25% of the relevant cost for the portion of the journey or portions you were categorized as traveling in a lower class for flights longer than 3,500 km.
