AJet compensation guide
The airline name alone does not determine your rights. Route, operating carrier and disruption details matter.
Quick answer
Could your flight qualify?
You may be entitled to compensation for an eligible AJet delay, cancellation, involuntary denied boarding or disrupted connection. SHY-YOLCU can apply to qualifying AJet flights from or to Türkiye, while EC261, UK261 and GACA may also become relevant depending on your route and direction of travel.

Passenger rights
Which passenger rights could apply?
AJet is a Turkish airline operating domestic and international services. SHY-YOLCU is therefore especially important, while routes involving the European Union, United Kingdom or Saudi Arabia can bring additional passenger-rights frameworks into scope.
Türkiye
SHY-YOLCU
TRY equivalent of €100–€600
Qualifying AJet flights departing from or arriving in Türkiye can fall under SHY-YOLCU because AJet is a Turkish carrier. The disruption type, final arrival impact and other regulatory conditions determine the applicable rights.

EC261
€250–€600 in qualifying cases
An AJet flight departing from an EU airport can fall under EC261. Because AJet is a non-EU carrier, a flight arriving in the EU from Türkiye is generally not covered by EC261 solely on the basis of that arrival.

UK261
£220–£520 in qualifying cases
A qualifying AJet departure from a UK airport can fall under UK261. AJet is not a UK or EU carrier, so inbound flights from Türkiye are treated differently.

GACA
About SAR 255–765 for qualifying delay cases
GACA passenger-rights regulations apply to flights departing from Saudi Arabian airports whether the carrier is Saudi or foreign. Qualifying AJet departures from Saudi Arabia can therefore fall within GACA.

What happened to your AJet flight?
Delayed flight
A significant arrival delay may qualify depending on the route, applicable passenger-rights rules and cause of the disruption.
Cancelled flight
Cancellation rights can depend on notice timing, the reason for cancellation and any alternative journey offered.
Denied boarding
Involuntary denied boarding can create compensation, alternative travel, refund and care rights in qualifying circumstances.
Missed connection
A connecting journey booked as one itinerary may qualify when a disruption causes you to reach your final destination significantly late.
Important conditions
What can affect your eligibility?
The AJet name alone does not determine entitlement. Travaro checks the route, direction of travel, actual operating carrier, cause of the disruption and your final arrival time before determining which passenger-rights rules may apply.
AJet departures from Türkiye can fall under SHY-YOLCU
Qualifying AJet departures from Turkish airports are within Türkiye's passenger-rights framework.
AJet arrivals into Türkiye can also be covered
Because AJet is a Turkish carrier, qualifying AJet-operated flights arriving in Türkiye can also fall under SHY-YOLCU.
EU departures can bring EC261 into scope
An AJet flight departing from an EU airport can fall under EC261 even though AJet itself is not an EU carrier.
UK departures can bring UK261 into scope
An AJet flight departing from a UK airport can fall under UK261. The opposite direction must be assessed differently because AJet is not a UK or EU carrier.
Saudi departures can bring GACA into scope
GACA covers qualifying flights departing Saudi airports operated by national or foreign airlines, including AJet.
The operating carrier matters
Connecting or partner journeys can contain flights operated by another airline. Passenger-rights coverage can change depending on which airline actually operated the affected segment.
Final arrival delay matters
For qualifying delays and protected connecting journeys, the time you ultimately reached your final destination can be particularly important.
Cancellation notice and cause matter
Your rights can change depending on when AJet informed you, why the cancellation occurred and what replacement travel was offered.
Extraordinary circumstances can affect compensation
Severe weather, air-traffic restrictions and other genuine events outside the airline's control can affect fixed-compensation entitlement, although other passenger rights may remain.
