Flight delayed for more than 2 hours, you have the right to be taken care of
A wildcat strike, also known as an unofficial strike, can be unexpected and leave you stranded. If your CANARY FLY flight has been delayed by over 2 hours, you’re entitled to food, drink, and accommodation if necessary. The airline may provide vouchers for these, but if not, be sure to keep receipts to claim expenses from the airline later.
You are not required to accept an alternate flight from CANARY FLY
In case of a disruption, the airline must offer you an alternative flight free of charge. The airline should provide you with the first possible flight, but if all the next flights are fully booked, you might receive an alternative option that may not make sense for your travel plans.
You have the right to decline the proposed flight. The airline must then refund you the ticket price. If the airline does not offer you an alternative or if you find a better option yourself, the airline must reimburse you for the price difference between the two tickets.
Tip: Before doing anything, it’s best to wait for a final notice from CANARY FLY
There may be few alternative flights available from other airlines. Of course, you want to secure another flight as soon as possible. However, we advise you not to book an alternative flight yourself before you have received final confirmation from CANARY FLY that your flight has been cancelled. If the strike is called off, you will lose your money.
Did the CANARY FLY strike disrupt your travel plans? You could be owed compensation
When the airline’s own staff, such as pilots, cabin crew, or ground staff, engage in a strike, CANARY FLY can be held liable. Under Regulation 261/2004, this is not considered a force majeure event, and you are entitled to compensation if you arrive more than 3 hours late or 1 hour early.
The amount of compensation you receive is determined by the distance of your journey and whether your flight was canceled less than 2 weeks before your departure.
