Your air passenger rights explained

Air passenger rights involve specific laws that support travelers and advocate for protection and compensation when people face flight disruptions.

You should know that the situation varies from country to country. For example, in the USA there are some regulations related to situations such as overbooked flights or tarmac delays. However, passengers often find more protection under the regulations of the countries they travel to. Europe’s EC 261 law is comprehensive and it favors the passengers by holding the airlines financially accountable in case of flight disruptions.

Unfortunately, most people are not aware that the law is on their side or even that passenger rights exist. In fact, 85% of air passengers don’t know their rights.
