Compensation standard for flight delay of China Eastern Airlines

Legal Analysis: The highest compensation can exceed that of 400 yuan. China Eastern Airlines' flight delay compensation conditions are similar to those of Air China and China Southern Airlines, but the standards are slightly different. If the flight is delayed for more than 4 hours and less than 8 hours, the minimum compensation standard is 200 yuan. If the flight is delayed for more than 8 hours (inclusive), the minimum compensation standard is 400 yuan. In other words, the maximum compensation may exceed that of 400 yuan. The compensation fee shall be paid by the airline, but due to reasons other than the airline itself, such as weather, no compensation shall be paid.

Legal basis: People's Republic of China (PRC) Civil Aviation Law.
