Common questions for this route

Which framework should I check for Los Angeles to Dubai?+

This route does not begin in the EU/EEA/Switzerland or the UK. The calculator keeps U.S. DOT refund and involuntary denied-boarding information separate from EU261 and UK261 compensation assessment.

Does the 13,400 km route distance guarantee compensation?+

No. Distance helps identify a potential statutory band only after the preliminary rule path, disruption type, timing, notice or rerouting facts, and airline-recorded cause have been assessed.

Which airline should I enter in the calculator?+

Enter the airline that operated the disrupted flight. The ticket seller, marketing airline or code-share partner may be different, so keep the itinerary and flight notice.

What evidence should I save before I contact the airline?+

Keep the booking confirmation, boarding pass if available, the airline's disruption notice, final-arrival timing, rerouting offer and receipts for reasonable expenses. Avoid uploading sensitive documents to this site.

Ready when you have the facts

Start this route with your airports prefilled.

The calculator will still ask for the operating airline and disruption facts before showing a preliminary result.
