AirHelp is a online service that allow airline passengers to seek compensation for flight cancellations, delays, or overbookings.[1]
The company's initial focus was Europe where it uses European Regulation No 261/2004 to seek to obtain compensation that a passenger is entitled to in the event of denied boarding, cancellation, or a long delay of flights.[2] However, since 2020, AirHelp has broadened its service and also supports passengers with flights in the US, Canada, Brazil, Turkey and Asia.
The company was founded by Henrik Zillmer, Nicolas Michaelsen and Greg Roodt in 2013.[3]
