Why doesn’t the legislation expressly detail a time limit?

Because the legislator didn’t want to @Richie.

Plenty of reasons why the passenger might not be able to do the travel again within, say, 1 year. Family events requiring complete reorganising, not enough annual leave, or other commitments or matters arising, an annual event that doesn’t fall quite at the same time next year, too much other travel also having needed to be rebooked, having planned to visit a location in a particular season due to weather or other natural phenomena (Northern Lights, cherry blossom season, avoid worst humidity seasons or be sure enough ice us there, etc.) Remember the airline has messed the passenger around by cancelling his flights.
