If you’ve ever dealt with a delayed flight or lost luggage, you know how frustrating the claims process can be. That’s where AirHelp comes in.

This Berlin-based startup has built a reputation for helping travelers claim compensation from airlines for disruptions like delays, cancellations, and lost baggage — handling all the paperwork and back-and-forth so you don’t have to.

And now, AirHelp has taken things a step further by launching a brand-new mobile app, which gives users an easy way to track and manage their compensation claims directly from their phones.

Here’s what you know about the new AirHelp app.

Flight Compensation Tracking Made Simple With AirHelp’s New App

AirHelp, recognized for its support to passengers facing delays, cancellations, and lost baggage, has introduced the AirHelp Flight and Claim Tracker, a free mobile app available on iOS and Android to simplify the process of claiming flight compensation.

The app offers real-time flight tracking, disruption alerts, and even options to add extra protection or insurance if you want added peace of mind. But its best feature? The app will automatically let you know if you’re eligible for compensation from a flight delay or cancellation — no digging through fine print or Googling your passenger rights.

The app also helps sync your calendar and Gmail, pulling in past and future flights and even sending you updates on gate changes, delays, cancellations, or where to pick up your bag.

“Flight disruptions are an increasing concern for passengers, especially as we approach the summer season,” said Tomasz Pawliszyn, CEO at AirHelp. “Our mission has always been to advocate for passengers, and with this new app, we are taking that commitment to the next level.”

If you want a bit more coverage, you can add AirHelp+, a subscription-based membership offered by AirHelp that provides travelers with enhanced support and financial protection during flight disruptions. This extra coverage kicks in for things like delays and baggage issues and pays out fast — sometimes within hours — on top of whatever compensation you’re already owed from the airline.

Hot Tip:

Even if you have a credit card that offers trip cancellation and interruption coverage, the AirHelp app is a solid travel companion to have. It helps you claim money directly from the airline for delays, cancellations, or lost bags — stuff your card’s coverage might not handle. Having both at your disposal gives you extra peace of mind and less hassle.

Final Thoughts

If you travel frequently or even just occasionally, the new AirHelp app is definitely worth downloading. It takes a lot of the stress out of dealing with flight delays, cancellations, and lost baggage by keeping you informed in real time and making compensation claims much simpler.

Whether you want to avoid missing out on compensation or simply have peace of mind, the new AirHelp app makes it easy to keep track of your flight delay or cancellation claims — rather than needing to access the AirHelp website.
