Skycop is a company that primarily aims to advocate for passengers' rights and assist them in claiming compensation for various flight-related issues.
About
Skycop operates within the framework of European Regulation (EC) No 261/2004, which establishes the rights of air passengers and the obligations of airlines in the event of flight delays, cancellations, or overbooking. This regulation serves as the legal basis for their advocacy on behalf of passengers.
Founded by Jurgis Petrošius, in 2017 and currently run by Tomas Vaišvila, the company has been involved in various legal battles against airline companies in accordance with European Union regulations.
Objectives
Skycop helps passengers in filing compensation claims when they have been affected by flight inconvenience. They lead the legal procedures to help passengers in seeking the compensation.[2]
They also provide assistance to passengers in claiming repayment for extra expenses they face as a result of these disruptions. This includes expenses such as accommodation, meals, and transportation, which passengers may have had to cover due to unexpected flight changes.
Legal Work
Skycop has actively engaged in legal battles with various airlines to uphold passenger rights. The company's commitment to justice has led to litigation against airlines that fail to compensate passengers for flight disruptions.[2]
Skycop led a successful campaign against Ryanair[3]. Their advocacy on behalf of affected passengers resulted in a win in Lithuania, where passengers were rightfully compensated for flight disruptions.
Skycop has also been involved in highlighting issues with Vueling Airlines. They have claimed that Vueling owes a substantial sum of €224 million in compensation to passengers affected by various flight troubles[4]
Skycop played a significant role in securing compensation for passengers who faced problems due to flight disruptions with AirBaltic. Their efforts resulted in an agreement by the airline to pay back affected passengers[5]
