You're LEGALLY entitled to compensation for flights canceled or delayed — Here's what you say:
Save this script to complain via email, chat, text, or phone:
"Hi, my name is [Your Name], and I'm reaching out to request compensation for my flight from [Origin] to [Destination] on [Date], which was [delayed/canceled]. I understand that flights can sometimes be delayed or canceled due to unforeseen circumstances, but I am entitled to compensation for the inconvenience caused by this [delay/cancellation].
I have attached copies of my ticket and any relevant receipts or documentation, including expenses for meals, accommodations, and transportation incurred due to the [delay/cancellation].
I would appreciate it if you could please review my case and provide me with a response as soon as possible.
Thank you for your attention to this matter."
When flights are canceled or delayed, you're legally entitled to:
• Refunds
• Alternate transportation
• Compensation for additional expenses
• Reimbursement for flight-related expenses
In the U.S., the Department of Transportation (DOT) requires airlines to compensate passengers for delays and cancellations.
The DOT's rules do not specify an amount but require airlines to provide meals, accommodations, and transportation to and from the airport.
Under European Union (EU) regulations, if your flight is canceled or significantly delayed, you may be entitled to compensation from the airline if the delay or cancellation was within the airline's control.
The first thing you should do is contact the airline to determine your options.
• If your flight has been canceled, many airlines offer to either reschedule your flight later or provide a full refund for the ticket.
• If your flight has been delayed, many airlines offer compensation or assistance, such as meals or hotel accommodations, depending on the length of the delay and the circumstances.
If you experienced a significant delay or other inconvenience, you may be able to receive additional compensation to cover any additional expenses you incurred as a result.
If you cannot find a satisfactory resolution, you can file a complaint with the Department of Transportation.

One of the true joys of my career was the 2023 @lc_volleyball journey. Incredible fight and a year that I know met the 3 most important goals I have for every team. 1. No regrets 2. Not wanting to take jerseys off when season is over. 3. Put team in a position to max out.
