Reply To: Cancelled BA flight

[yonasl]

@aja @LadyLondon I was under the impression that if a flight gets cancelled and you get put on another one at the very same time then there is no compensation due (the test being “well you still arrived to your destination at the agreed time”)

Uk261 reads for Article 7:
Right to compensation …

2.
When passengers are offered re-routing to their final destination on an alternative flight pursuant to Article 8, the arrival time of which does not exceed the scheduled arrival time of the flight originally booked

(a)by two hours, in respect of all flights of 1500 kilometres or less; or

(b)by three hours, in respect of all F2… flights between 1500 and 3500 kilometres; or

(c)by four hours, in respect of all flights not falling under (a) or (b), the operating air carrier may reduce the compensation provided for in paragraph 1 by 50 %.
