Proven damages: Meaning for Flight Refunds and Claims

Money claimed for an actual loss that you can document and connect to the disruption. A treaty liability ceiling is not an automatic award.

Why it matters

A liability ceiling isn’t a check. You still need to show the loss, how the delay caused it, and the rule that applies.

Compare the applicable rule with your ticket and the airline’s written notice. You can also browse other flight-claim terms.

This definition is a starting point. The rule and ticket terms for your flight still matter.
