You arrive at the airport, excited about your trip, only to find out that your flight has been delayed by several hours. The agent at the check-in doesn't seem to know what's going on, so you're just left there hanging in the dark, hoping that you'll eventually depart. What if you had an important meeting, what if you were travelling to attend a wedding or you booked a guided tour?

If you're like most passengers, chances are you'll just deal with your frustration and accept that there's nothing you can do.

Actually, there is something you can do.

ClaimCompass is a platform, which enables passengers to claim and receive up to US$670 from the airline when their flights have been delayed, cancelled or overbooked. The company works on a "no win, no fee" basis, so filing a claim is instant and absolutely free - a 25% commission is deducted only when the money gets transferred to the client.

Today, ClaimCompass joins forces with VariFlight - a global leading aviation data service provider to amplify their flight monitoring services and instantly notify passengers via their partnership network when they're entitled to compensation from the airline.

"We are delighted to work with ClaimCompass to better serve global flyers in an era where more accurate and transparent flight information is becoming an essential part for all travel related businesses. VariFlight strives to offer the best end-to-end flight data solution to our customers" said Zheng Hongfeng, CEO of VariFlight.

In 2017 alone, ClaimCompass has processed claims worth over US$5 million and is hoping to bring its service to even more passengers by the end of the year. Aside from the user platform, the company has also developed an API in partnership with Microsoft, which helps any travel service providing airfare enhance their customer experience, while creating ancillary revenue sources.

"Our goal is to be integrated with anyone who sells airfare out there, so we can reach as many passengers as we can and make sure they always receive the money that they're entitled to" said Alexander Sumin, Chief Marketing Officer at ClaimCompass.
