How RecoverAir handles this
United Airlines handles millions of passengers annually — and denies or underpays thousands of valid compensation claims every year. Most travelers accept whatever United Airlines offers first, or give up entirely after the initial denial.
RecoverAir knows United Airlines's claim process, response patterns, and what documentation drives successful recoveries. We review your situation, determine what you are owed, and pursue it until it is resolved.
Frequently asked questions
What am I owed if United Airlines cancelled my flight?
Under US DOT rules, United Airlines must offer a full cash refund for cancelled flights. If the cancellation was due to a controllable reason — not weather — you may also be entitled to additional compensation for delays, meals, and accommodation.
How do I claim compensation from United Airlines?
Submit your details through RecoverAir. We review your United Airlines claim, determine what you are owed under DOT rules, and pursue it on your behalf. You do not have to deal with United Airlines directly.
Does United Airlines have to compensate me for a delay?
US law does not mandate delay compensation the way EU261 does in Europe — but DOT rules do require refunds for significant delays, and United Airlines's own Contract of Carriage may provide additional protections. RecoverAir reviews both.
