Kravflyg is a Swedish information site on air passengers' right to compensation for delayed, cancelled and overbooked flights. We explain what EU Regulation 261/2004 — and the upcoming Regulation 2026/261 — actually entitles you to, in plain language. The site is independent and is not run by any airline, any public authority or any claim agency. It is written for English-speaking residents, expats, students and visitors in Sweden.
What the site is — and what it is not
Kravflyg provides general information. We are not a law firm, not a legal practice and not a claim service that recovers money for you. We do not take on cases, do not read your booking and do not represent you against the airline. What we do is gather, explain and keep up to date the information you need to understand your situation and decide for yourself how you want to proceed.
We publish no invented figures about how much money "we" have recovered — because we do not recover anything. We promise no outcomes. If something in the rules is unclear — for example, where the delay threshold lands in the 2026 reform — we say so plainly rather than guessing.
The editorial team
Kravflyg is written and reviewed by a small, permanent editorial team. We work as a team and publish under the name Kravflyg rather than under individual bylines — but we stand behind every page, and you can always reach us to question or correct something.
The work is split into three roles. Research and writing — reading the primary sources, meaning the regulation text, judgments from the Court of Justice of the EU and guidance from public authorities, and translating them into clear language. Fact-checking — verifying that every reference matches the current text on EUR-Lex and at Transportstyrelsen (the Swedish Transport Agency), and flagging when a page needs reviewing again. Editorial responsibility — keeping the working method consistent and making sure every page that touches on a right rests on a verifiable source.
You can reach the editorial team at redaktion@kravflyg.com — for comments, corrections or questions about a source.
What our competence rests on — said plainly
The editorial team's competence lies in consumer information and in reading and reproducing the rules around EU air passenger rights accurately and with clear source references. No one on the team is a practising lawyer, and we do not claim to be. Nothing on the site is individual legal advice.
That means a line we hold firmly: we can explain what the law says in general, but not assess your particular case. For that you turn to ARN (Allmänna reklamationsnämnden — the Swedish National Board for Consumer Disputes), which resolves consumer disputes at no cost, or to Transportstyrelsen (the Swedish Transport Agency), the supervisory authority for air passenger rights in Sweden. Read more in the rules in EU Regulation 261/2004 .
How the site is funded
Kravflyg contains links to AirHelp, a service that recovers claims for passengers in exchange for a share of the compensation. When a reader follows such a link and their claim is paid out, we earn a commission. It costs the reader nothing extra, and it does not affect what we write. Read more in our editorial policy .
We always point to the free route — claiming yourself directly from the airline, and turning to ARN where needed — alongside the paid service, so you can weigh the options for yourself. How that works in detail is set out on the page about how affiliate links work on Kravflyg.
How we work with the content
Every page that touches on a right is built on a primary or institutional source and is marked with the date it was last reviewed. How we research, review and update the texts is described in our editorial policy.
