My flight is delayed. What should I do?

Check the airline app for updates and alternatives. If you have a connection, ask the airline to protect it.

Do I get compensation for a delay?

In the U.S., there is no federal requirement for compensation for delays, but many airlines provide meals or hotels when the disruption is their responsibility.

What if I miss a connection?

If both flights are on the same ticket, the airline rebooks you at no extra cost. Separate tickets have different rules.

Will I get a refund if the airline cancels?

Generally yes, if you decline the alternative offered. See our guide to canceled flights for details.

Can you rebook me if my flight is canceled?

Yes, if your ticket was issued through us we can contact the airline and help find options. Call (800) 490-3234.

Is weather covered by travel insurance?
