Cancelled flight W45051 of 28/09/2025
The Wizz Air flight W45051 from Tirana to Bologna was cancelled without prior explanation, forcing passengers to postpone their travel plans unexpectedly.
According to European Regulation EC 261/2004, passengers are entitled to financial compensation when a flight is cancelled with less than 14 days' notice, as occurred in this case.
How much compensation can you claim?
Compensation is not linked to the ticket price and is determined by the flight distance:
- €250 for flights up to 1500 km
- €400 for flights between 1500 and 3500 km
- €600 for flights over 3500 km
Since the Tirana Bologna route is under 1500 km, affected passengers are entitled to €250 in compensation per person.

Frequently asked questions
Does bad weather or a strike rule out compensation?
Severe weather and strikes outside the airline, such as air traffic control strikes, are extraordinary circumstances. Strikes by the airline's own staff and technical faults normally are not.
How long do I have to claim?
You can claim months or even years after the flight: the time limit depends on the country. It is better not to wait, as documents get harder to find.
How much does the service cost?
Checking your flight is free and you pay nothing if no compensation is paid. If we win, we keep 25% + VAT.
Can I also get my ticket refunded?
If the flight is cancelled, or the delay is over 5 hours and you decide not to travel, you can also ask for a ticket refund on top of compensation.
Are children entitled to compensation?
Yes, every passenger with a ticket is, children included. Only infants travelling for free are excluded.
