Important dates
How hard is this claim to file?
Watch out for
- The $14 million fund gets split across every valid claim, so your actual payout depends on how many people file. Administration and attorney fees come out first.
- Denied-entry and denied-access claims pay very differently — up to $2,000 versus $100 per ticket. Make sure you pick the right category for what actually happened to you.
- The $300 travel cost reimbursement isn't a bonus on top of $2,000. It's included inside that $2,000 cap for denied-entry claimants.
We prepare — you file on the official site yourself. This is not legal advice and is not an eligibility decision; the administrator and court decide.
