People all over the world often face times when they’re
denied boarding due to one of a variety of reasons, leaving them without any
options at the airport. The important thing during these times is to not lose
hope, as there are several ways to claim different types of compensation from
the airline itself. The first thing you should do is check if you’re eligible
for claiming compensation from the airline itself: you can get compensation for
being denied boarding if you’re holding a confirmed ticket when you were denied
boarding, provided you were there at the proper time. You also need to have
your proper travel documents, as without them you wouldn’t have been able to travel.
- A Common Option for Compensation: Getting a Booking on Another Flight
One of the most common options taken by airlines is to
book you a seat on another flight for the same location. This is beneficial for
both you and the airline, as the airline doesn’t have to pay you any flight
cancellation compensation if they book you a seat on a flight that leaves
within an hour of the original light you were denied boarding.
- Getting Your Proper Flight Delay Compensation
Proper flight delay compensation is that if your flight was
delayed by less than 24 hours, or was cancelled together, the airline has to
provide meals, refreshments to all the passengers. If the period of time the
flight was delayed by exceeds 24 hours, the airline also has to provide hotel
accommodations for you (hotel accommodations are only for people from other
areas).
- What to Do About Failure to Inform In Case of Airlines Flight Cancellation?
This is a pretty common question, as there are always
people who aren’t informed about an airlines flight cancellation. If your
airline failed to notify you in due time (the standard is 2 weeks before
departure), then the International policy states that they must refund you the
cost of the booking itself, along with additional compensation for
inconveniences suffered by the passenger.
