About us
Whether you are going on holiday or on a business trip, a delay or cancellation is always annoying. Unfortunately, airlines generally refuse to pay the legally-required compensation to the affected passengers. Lack of knowledge, expertise and time are the main reasons for passengers to give up. For this reason, Yource, the parent company of Flight-delayed.co.uk and others, was founded in 2010. We help all travelers and tour operators claim compensation for delayed, canceled and overbooked flights. Yource is live in 9 countries and offers support in 8 different languages all under one brand. We take care of all communication with third parties and aim to bring all claims to a successful conclusion.
