When a flight is cancelled or delayed, you may have rights. Sometimes flights stop because of air traffic control problems. First, check the airline’s message and your booking details. If your flight is delayed, ask about help. You may get meals, hotel stays, or transport, depending on the delay. If your flight is cancelled, the airline should offer a new flight or a refund. You can also ask for compensation in some cases. Keep your tickets and receipts.
