How much compensation can I get for a delayed or cancelled Jordan flight?
Jordan is not a part of Europe, so only flights that originated in Europe or were operated by European airlines qualify for compensation for delays or cancellations on Jordan flights. Only flights that arrived at their destination after being delayed for at least 3 hours or that were cancelled within 14 days of departure are eligible for compensation. Remember that the airline must be held liable for the disruption as well.
If your flight from Jordan has been delayed or cancelled, you may be entitled to flight compensation of up to £520 per passenger. The amount of compensation you can receive varies depending on the distance of your flight and the length of the delay.
| Distance of your flight | Compensation |
|---|---|
| Flights shorter than 1,500 km | Get £220 per passenger |
| Flight between 1,500 and 3,500 km | Get £350 per passenger |
| Flights of over 1,500 kilometres within the EU | Get £350 per passenger |
| Flights of over 3,500 kilometres outside of the EU | Get £520 per passenger |
Keep in mind that the airline owes you specific assistance if your flight is cancelled or delayed. This includes any necessary vouchers for food and drink, communication, transportation, and lodging facilities. You can directly redeem such vouchers at the airline's service desk in the airport. If the airline doesn't provide vouchers, you can still make the necessary purchases and keep your receipts; the airline will be responsible for paying you back.
Flight compensation for a delayed flight from/to Jordan — check if you're eligible now!
If you experienced a flight delay departing in the UK or EU and arriving in Jordan, you may be entitled to compensation from the airline of up to £520 per passenger. Remember that because Jordan is not part of Europe, it’s only possible to claim flight compensation for flights leaving from a European airport and/or operated by a European airline.
Moreover, Jordan delayed flight compensation depends on:
The length of the delay: your flight to Jordan is delayed for at least 3 hours.
The responsibility of the airline: your flight to Jordan is delayed by conditions under the airline’s control.
There are situations in which the delay is out of the airline’s control. In such cases, the airline is not obligated to provide compensation. Read more about these conditions in the “Extraordinary Circumstances” section.
The compensation amount varies depending on the flight distance: longer flights mean higher compensation.

Cancelled flight from Jordan — Compensation and refund policies
If your flight to Jordan has been cancelled, you may be entitled to compensation or a refund depending on the circumstances.
Claim flight compensation for your cancelled flight from Jordan
To be eligible for compensation and/or refund, you must meet the following criteria:
Your flight to Jordan is cancelled within 14 days prior to the scheduled departure.
Your flight to Jordan is cancelled by conditions under the airline’s control.
If the cancellation was due to “Extraordinary Circumstances” beyond the airline's control, such as bad weather or security risks, you may not be eligible for compensation.
| Cancellation notice | Alternative flight | Compensation |
|---|---|---|
| Fewer than 7 days in advance | Departs 1h+ earlier or arrived 2h+ later | Yes |
| 7-14 days in advance | Departs 2h+ earlier or arrived 4h+ later | Yes |
| Fewer than 14 days in advance | No alternative flight offered | Yes + refund |
However, if an industrial action, such as a strike or riot, caused the cancellation of the Jordan flight, you cannot file a claim for compensation. This is because the actions count as “extraordinary circumstances”.
Ask for the refund of your flight from Jordan
In addition, in the event that your Jordan flight is cancelled, you can be qualified for a full ticket refund. Compensation stands apart from this. In the case that a Jordan flight is cancelled and the airline is at fault, the airline must compensate the passengers. However, all passengers are eligible for a refund as long as they eventually decide against flying with the airline.
If your flight to Jordan is cancelled, it is important to note that the airline has an obligation to offer you the choice between a full refund of your ticket or an alternative flight to your destination.
You can receive a full monetary refund for your cancelled Jordan flight if:
The airline did not offer you an alternative flight, OR,
The airline offered you an alternative flight, but you chose not to accept it.
Were you offered a voucher for your cancelled flight from Jordan? Here’s what you should do.
If your flight to Jordan was cancelled, the airline may offer you a voucher instead of a compensation or refund. We do not recommend you take the voucher, and here is why:
There are often limitations to the voucher with the airline where it can be used and a timeframe where you have to use the voucher.
If the airline ever goes bankrupt, it is very difficult for you to get your money back if you haven’t used the voucher.
It's important to note that if the airline offers you a voucher as a form of compensation, it does not negate your right to claim additional compensation for the cancelled flight. Airlines are legally required to offer passengers the choice between a refund or rebooking to their destination. If you are not satisfied with a voucher and prefer a refund, you are entitled to one under EU261.
If you believe you are entitled to compensation for your delayed or cancelled flight from Jordan, you can use our claim calculator to determine your eligibility. It's important to keep all documentation related to your flight, such as your ticket and boarding pass, as evidence to support your claim.
Flight delayed or cancelled to Jordan, am I also entitled to flight compensation?

Extraordinary circumstances disrupted my Jordan flight — can the airline really deny my compensation claim ?
Under British and EU regulations, airlines are required to pay compensation and/or refund for disrupted flights, except in cases of extraordinary circumstances beyond their control.
Here are some examples of these circumstances:
Bad weather conditions, such as thick fog, heavy rain, or thunderstorms.
A strike, most often specifically within the aviation industry (for example, a strike of air traffic control workers at a specific airport).
However, a strike of the airline's crew is not considered an extraordinary circumstance!
Political circumstances, such as a terrorist attack or general security risk due to political unrest.
Natural disasters, including volcanic eruptions and hurricanes.
A collision between the aircraft and birds or other foreign objects.
An ill or unruly passenger.
Flight delays caused by the airport staff, such as extraordinarily long queues to security checks.
It is recommended to seek the advice of a legal professional if you believe that your claim has been wrongfully denied. Legal experts at Flight-Delayed.co.uk can help you understand your rights and take the necessary steps to pursue your claim.

How long can I claim for my delayed or cancelled flight from Jordan?
