Întrebările tale, răspunsuri directe
My Copenhagen to Hamburg train was over an hour late. Do I have a claim?
Yes. About 34% of services on this route are delayed. If you arrived in Hamburg 60+ minutes after your scheduled time, EU law entitles you to 25% of your ticket back. 120+ minutes: 50%.
The delay happened at the border or on the ferry crossing. Does that count?
Yes. The total delay to your final destination is what matters — not where the delay started. Ferry delays, border hold-ups, and German infrastructure issues all count toward your claim.
How much am I owed for a Copenhagen to Hamburg delay?
60–119 minutes late: 25% of your ticket. 120+ minutes: 50%. On a EUR 159 ticket, that's EUR 39.75 to EUR 79.50.
The operator said it was outside their control. Is that valid?
Rarely. Cross-border infrastructure and ferry operations are well within what operators are responsible for. We challenge these rejections and win.
How long do I have to claim?
90 days from the date of travel. Don't wait — journey records don't last forever. Check now.
