Refund.me Expands To India, France And Poland Lowering It's Fees To Better Defend Air Passenger Rights Worldwide
The ‘no win, no fee’ online platform and mobile app announces it is reducing its commission to only 15% of successful claims as it celebrates its first anniversary
In just 1 year since its launch, the worldwide service provider has already processed claims from 73 countries and 153 airlines
refund.me, recently recognized for its innovative design by the Sabre Travel Network, takes another important step in its mission to defend passenger rights worldwide
refund.me, the international service provider which helps passengers claim their right to compensation for flight delays, cancellations, missed connections and diversions, has announced its newest international expansion to India, France and Poland. With an estimated combined annual traffic of 300 million passengers[1], these three markets represent a significant milestone in refund.me’s mission to defend passenger rights worldwide.
refund.me’s website, widget and mobile app are now offered in five languages: English, German, Spanish, French and Polish. The cloud-based, largely automated and specially developed system provides passengers a real-time assessment of their claim based on refund.me’s worldwide flight monitoring. The system also relies on an algorithm which takes into account the complex EU regulation which defines compensations of up to € 600 ($800) for flight delays, cancellations, missed connections and diversions.
In light of its success in its first year of operation, refund.me has lowered its commission to only 15% (plus VAT) of successful claims. This comes as refund.me continues to strive to become the traveller’s best friend and to make passenger rights more accessible worldwide. The company will continue to operate on a ‘no win, no fee’ basis which includes going to court at no extra cost to enforce valid claims.
Eve Buechner, founder and CEO of refund.me, underlined: “We are pleased to announce our expansion to India, France and Poland and the reduction of our commission to 15% as these are important steps forward in our mission to defend passenger rights worldwide. Our presence in these markets means hundreds of millions of passengers will have convenient access to their rightful compensation. Clearly a worldwide platform and mobile app like ours is a hassle-free solution that passengers accept to effectively claim their right.”
In April of this year, refund.me also launched in the UK, US, Spain, Argentina and Mexico in its push to become the international traveler's best friend.
This international expansion to three rapidly growing travel markets comes as refund.me is celebrating its one-year anniversary today, July 24th. After its launch last year, refund.me received its very first claim the following day and has gone on to process claims from 73 countries, 153 airlines and over 260 airports, winning passengers’ trust across the planet. Likewise, it has been recognized by the Sabre Travel Network for its innovative business model and its utility for travel agents and travelers alike.
Moreover, refund.me has rolled out its brand new 2.0 widget, offering affected passengers a more user-friendly and accurate service. Indeed, since its birth a year ago, refund.me has consistently worked to improve its product and is proud to unveil this new widget which will help passengers effectively claim their right.
Despite a recently proposed revision to EU Regulation EC 261/2004 which could increase the threshold for compensation to 5, 9 or even 12 hours, passengers can continue to conveniently claim their right thanks to refund.me.
The process is simple: To file a complaint, the affected passenger quickly fills out an online form, and refund.me handles the process from there. The customer is only required to pay a now reduced 15% commission (plus statutory VAT) only if the claim is settled successfully. This allows passengers to avoid the complicated and time-consuming bureaucratic process and claim up to € 600 ($800) simply by entering their flight and other data in the Advanced Business Logic (ABL) of the cloud-based refund.me system.
About refund.me
refund.me is an international service provider that helps passengers enforce their claims to compensation for flight delays, cancellations and missed connections quickly and easily. Thanks to its specially developed, high-precision Advanced Business Logic (ABL) system, claims can be submitted through the website or the free mobile app. refund.me can quickly enforce claims of up to €600 according to EU Regulation 261/2004.
This start-up created in July 2012 has made it its mission to make passenger rights worldwide transparent and attainable. Under its current services, refund.me also helps bus, ship and rail passengers file and enforce their claims under the relevant EU regulations (EU 181/11, EU 1177/10, EC 1371/07). With regard to air travel, passenger rights have been enforced for hundreds of customers in 73 countries from 5 continents and 153 airlines.
The corporate headquarters of refund.me are located in Potsdam.

14 Ways To Enjoy New York City's Swankiest Spots For Free (Or Cheap)
Contributed by Jennifer Polland And Melissa Stanger
New York may be one of the most expensive cities in the world, but many people don't realize that it's entirely possible to enjoy even the city's swankiest spots for free or cheap.
From a subterranean food court inside the Plaza Hotel to little-known lunch deals at some of the city's best restaurants, here are 14 ways to enjoy New York City's fanciest venues without spending a fortune.
Jean-Georges is known as one of the best restaurants in New York City, but a meal there can cost hundreds of dollars — except at lunch, when there's a $38 price-fixed menu, one of the best deals in the city.
Each year, millions of visitors pass through the Metropolitan Museum of Art and pay the full admission price of $25. But many people don't realize that admission is "suggested." (It actually costs as little as a penny to enter the museum.) The best time to visit is on a Saturday night, when the museum is open late and has live music without the crowds.
Located in the basement of the Plaza Hotel, the Plaza Food Hall is home to dozens of food vendors selling everything from sushi to macarons at (relatively) affordable prices.
Read more about the Plaza Food Hall >
King & Grove, a boutique hotel in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, has a gorgeous rooftop pool with a spacious deck that's open to the public for a small fee of $35 ($45 on weekends).
Manhattan's biggest spenders drop millions on priceless works of art at Christie's Auction House, but the masterpieces are open for free public viewing before each auction.
People drool over the dry-aged steaks at Brooklyn's iconic Peter Luger Steakhouse, but steak for two costs about $100. What most people don't know is that at lunchtime, Peter Luger offers a hamburger made with the same premium-quality meat for $11.50—a fraction of the dinner price.
With cover fees and jacked-up drink costs, a night at a jazz club can cost a hefty amount—but not at Dizzy's Club at Jazz at Lincoln Center, a beautiful upscale jazz venue inside the Time Warner Center with large windows overlooking Central Park. Top acts play at the late-night sessions on Tuesdays and Wednesday for a fraction of the price of a normal session. (There's a $5 cover and a $5 menu.)
Hidden inside the elegant lobby of midtown's upscale Le Parker Meridien Hotel, there's a raucous hole-in-the wall burger joint (aptly called the Burger Joint) that's tucked behind a heavy red curtain. The menu is simple—burgers, fries, beer—but cheap.
The historic Empire Hotel serves classy cocktails at its rooftop bar, which has views of Lincoln Center and the Upper West Side. Overtime NYC, a happy hour deals site, offers great deals at this hotel, like half-priced drinks at the bar.
The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) houses the latest and greatest modern art exhibits, including the infamous Rain Room. Admission normally costs $25, but on Friday nights visitors can pay what they wish.

Tickets to performances by the New York Philharmonic are typically expensive and hard to come by. But the world-renowned symphony orchestra plays for free in several New York City parks during the summer Concerts in the Park series.
The price of Broadway tickets has skyrocketed in recent years, but it's still possible to get discounted tickets to the hottest Broadway shows at the TKTS booth in Times Square, which offers discounts of up to 50% off to same-day performances.
New York is home to some of the most exclusive—and most expensive—restaurants in the world. Twice a year, dozens of the city's best restaurants offer affordable price-fixed meals during NYC Restaurant Week. Summer Restaurant Week starts on Monday.
The hipster-friendly Ace Hotel in Manhattan's trendy NoMad neighborhood is home to Michelin-starred restaurant The Breslin, Stumptown Coffee Roasters, and luxe rooms that cost upwards of $250 a night. But it's possible to enjoy the hotel's cool ambiance—and free Wi-Fi—by hanging out in the lobby.

Who Has The Best Airline Food?
Photo courtesy of Air France
Contributed by Katie Kelly Bell
Airlines are lining up the experts to add some polish to the in-flight experience and it’s a welcome improvement.The skies have become an interesting new frontier in dining as the captive audience on an airplane is a great stage to show off national talent. Delta Airlineshas been working with James Beard award winning chef Michelle Bernstein and Master Sommelier Andrea Robinson to impress fliers. For the Olympic Games British Airways enlisted the culinary genius of Heston Blumenthal to create a special in-flight menu. Of course there is always a density of culinary talent in France and Air France does dish up some of the best food at 30,000 feet.
There are many travelers who might well disagree, citing their own lavish (or awful) airline experiences on other airlines. The current online buzz is about the dining on Turkish Airlines, Air New Zealand and Singapore Airlines. Indeed, airline food is such a hot topic, there’s even a website that posts meal ratings and images. Of course I haven’t flown every airline out there, and I can’t speak to every airline’s cuisine, but I’ve logged my share of miles and when I take my seat on Air France I am always well fed. Let’s start with coach cabin (because that’s where most of the world is flying these days). After the cattle call is complete and we are herded into our seats and cruising at 30,000 feet, a lovely thing happens: elegant French people glide through the cabin with a beverage cart teeming with an assortment of libations including Champagne. Real Champagne, in coach. On a recent trip I helped myself to several glasses, which nicely complimented my smoked salmon and cheese. One has to love an airline that freely pours Champagne.
The business class cabin takes things up a serious notch or two. Before departure you get to pop into their fabulous lounges and sip vintage French wines before departing. On board you’ll enjoy selections (such as a Crozes Hermitage Les Meysonniers or a Grand Cru Classe Bordeaux from the Haut-Medoc) from Olivier Poussier, voted World’s Best Sommelier in 2000. The airline has now enlisted the expertise and inspiration of several famed French chefs who are creating special meals for passengers. My flight featured specially prepared dishes from Michelin rated Chef Joel Robuchon (the most starred chef in the world, 24 total and counting). The entrée was Robuchon’s chicken thigh fricassee with sherry sauce, semolina and vegetables. I might have opted for the Sautéed Chinese noodles of a filet of sea bream or the pan seared beef tenderloin, but Robuchon’s special dish was astonishingly savory and rich (given the palate dulling effects of high altitude). And it’s not just the cuisine, it’s the elegant French touches, fetching boxes of Michel Cluizel’s artisanal chocolates, teas from Fauchon, you get the idea.
cheese plate on Air France business class
Just before landing we are treated to yet another dish: Shredded duck on a silky pillow of mashed potatoes. Hiding underneath is a flaky, crisp Parmesan crust, a nice foil for the rich texture of the duck. Paired with my glass of Henriot Champagne, the dish’s toe curling tastiness is mostly evidenced by the fork licking going on around me; landing seems almost a shame. They don’t skimp on their lounges either; the premiere lounge in Paris boasts a restaurant by Alain Ducasse, a nice way to savor French dining if you’ve only time for an airport layover.
The premium experiences on other airlines are equally impressive, but when one considers the whole plane, including the herd back in coach, I give the nod to Air France for raising the hospitality bar; everyone on the plane gets a nice meal and some bubbly; to that I can only say: bon voyage and bon appétit
Silversea Cruise Ship Fails CDC Inspection
Silversea Cruises' Silver Shadow has failed its most recent Centers for Disease Control and Prevention inspection, the first time the ship has done so. Silver Shadow earned a score of 84 during a June 17 surprise sanitation inspection.
The CDC's surprise cruise ship cleanliness exam is conducted twice a year, with an 86 considered passing.
Although details of the inspection are not yet available on the CDS's Web site, the cruise line confirmed the failure to Cruise Critic.
"On June 17, Silversea's Silver Shadow received an atypical score of 84 during the Vessel Sanitation Program inspection in Skagway," the line said in a prepared statement. "Silversea is deeply disappointed by this specific and only unsatisfactory score and has taken immediate measures to address the issues identified in the inspection report."
In the statement the company confirmed its commitment to maintaining the "highest standards" in all areas of operations, including sanitation.
"Following a thorough review of Silver Shadow's procedures, we have taken the necessary measures to ensure that that standards are the best in the industry," the line said.
Silversea spokesman, Brad Ball, declined to comment on what measures, specifically, the line has taken.
Before this failing grade, Silver Shadow had never earned a score lower than 92. Its previous inspection, on September 3, 2012, earned it a 95.
"Silversea is sincerely sorry for the shortcomings in Silver Shadow's evaluation and is committed to ensuring that future inspections result in higher scores in line with the usual Silversea standards."
Cruise Critic's calls to the CDC have not been returned.
