Can you get money back for a cancelled flight – What you need to know about your rights | Travel News | Travel
Despite the fact that Britain is no longer part of the European Union, this regulation still applies to all UK or EU regulated flights departing from a UK or EU airport, regardless of the airline you are travelling on.
Martin Lewis, founder of the MoneySavingExpert.com explained that under these rules, EU airports also include those in Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland.
However, your rights under this regulation do not apply if you weren’t on a UK or EU regulated flight, meaning you won’t receive a refund or compensation through this avenue.
According to Flight Right, passengers who experience a flight cancellation are entitled to their money back in the form of:
- A ticket refund
- A replacement flight
- Compensation from the airline (if the airline informed you 14 days or less before the flight was scheduled to depart)
