Frequently Asked

About these tools

Are TravelWise Tech tools really free?

Yes. Every tool listed on this page is free to use, with no account or sign-up required. We make money when travelers choose to engage RecoverAir for end-to-end claim recovery, not from the tools themselves.

How accurate is the flight delay compensation calculator?

The calculator applies current U.S. DOT 2024 rules, EU Regulation 261/2004, and UK 261 thresholds. Results are an estimate of statutory entitlement, not a guarantee. Actual recovery depends on the airline’s stated cause of disruption, your specific itinerary, and any prior compensation already provided.

What information do I need to use the calculators?

For the flight delay calculator: your flight number or origin and destination, the scheduled departure date, the actual arrival time or delay length, and the reason the airline gave for the disruption. No personal data is required.

Do these calculators work for international flights?

Yes. The flight delay compensation calculator covers U.S. domestic flights under DOT rules, flights departing from or arriving in the EU under Regulation 261/2004, and flights involving the UK under UK 261. For other jurisdictions, the calculator surfaces the closest applicable rule and notes when no statutory compensation regime applies.

What is the difference between the tools and RecoverAir?

The tools answer specific questions. RecoverAir handles the end-to-end recovery work: documentation, formal demand letters, escalation paths, regulator complaints. If a tool tells you that you are owed compensation and the airline refuses, RecoverAir is where the next conversation happens.
