Flight Claim Scenario 020: Proven Loss of €120 and a 6,303 SDR Ceiling

Imagine this itinerary: proven loss of €120 and a 6,303 sdr ceiling. It's a hypothetical example, not a real traveler story or verified payment.

Assumed facts

What the example teaches

A treaty liability ceiling is not the payment amount; documented loss remains central.

These assumptions don't produce a payment figure.

Try it with your own facts

Swap each assumption for what happened on your flight: the ticket, airline, notice, and actual arrival. Then check the official rule and use the airline's claim channel. This isn't a real traveler review.
