AirHelp is a claims management company that promotes and enforces air passenger rights in cases of flight disruptions globally.[1][failed verification] Its online service helps air passengers get compensation from airlines when their flight gets canceled, delayed, or overbooked. AirHelp is also known for publishing annual rankings of airports and airlines.

The company was founded by Henrik Zillmer, Nicolas Michaelsen and Greg Roodt in 2013.[2] Its operation is mainly based on European Regulation No 261/2004 under which passengers in the EU are entitled to compensation in the event of denied boarding, cancellation, or a long delay of flights.[3] Since 2020, AirHelp has broadened its service and supports passengers in Europe, US, Canada, Brazil, Turkey and Asia.
