The smarter way to claim flight compensation
you win more.
Traditional claims companies quote whatever commission they want — you have no power to negotiate. AirBid inverts this, making them compete openly for every case.
No Upfront Fees, Ever
You never pay a penny unless your claim is won. Commission comes out of the payout only.
Full Transparency
Every commission rate, timeline, and provider rating is shown upfront before you decide.
Faster Payouts
Competing providers work harder and faster because they know others are also bidding.
Verified Providers Only
Every company is vetted, reviewed, and rated by real passengers before listing.

What Passengers Say

"My BA flight to New York was cancelled with just 2 hours notice. AirBid got me 4 competing offers within 48 hours. I chose the best one and had €600 in my account within 8 weeks. Absolutely incredible."
Sarah M.
London · LHR → JFK
"I was initially told my claim wasn't valid by the airline. AirBid connected me with a specialist provider who knew exactly how to handle it. They won and I received €400 I never thought I'd see."
James K.
Manchester · MAN → BCN
"Simple, fast, and totally transparent. Submitted in under 5 minutes, received 3 competing offers with different commission rates. Picked the best deal. €250 in my account 6 weeks later."
Elena V.
Dublin · DUB → AMS
"Two delayed flights in one trip cost me a whole day. AirBid's bidding model meant I actually got competitive terms — 18% commission vs the 35% I was quoted elsewhere. The difference was significant."
Marcus T.
Paris · CDG → LAX
"As a frequent flyer I've had many delays. AirBid is the first platform that felt genuinely on my side. The competitive bidding is a game changer. I recommend it to everyone I know."
