Cancelled or delayed flight help

When a flight is cancelled or badly delayed, lay out rebooking options and what the airline owes the traveler.

Ask for it like this

  • “My flight got cancelled, what are my options?”
  • “Am I owed compensation for a delayed flight?”
  • “Get a refund for a cancelled flight”

What your assistant does

  1. Get the airline, flight number, date, route, and what the airline has offered so far.
  2. Search the airline's own contract of carriage or customer-service plan for cancellations and delays, and the applicable rules (e.g. the US DOT refund rule, or EU261 / UK261 for European flights).
  3. Tell the user plainly what they are entitled to: a refund instead of a rebooking, meal or hotel vouchers, or cash compensation, and the deadline to claim it.
  4. List the fastest rebooking paths (airline app, phone, partner airlines) and alternative flights you can find on the same route.
  5. Draft a short, factual refund or compensation request the user can send, citing the rule and the flight details.
