Indecopi: know your rights if your airline canceled your flight

Given the flight cancellations announced by some airlines, due to COVID-19 infections among their staff, the National Institute for the Defense of Competition and the Protection of Intellectual Property (Indecopi)informs passengers of their rights as users of this service.

In case of cancellation

The airline must refund the passenger the net value of the ticket or board him on another flight the same day. If this does not happen, the airline must provide food (breakfast, lunch, dinner, as the case may be), lodging (if necessary), and transportation to and from the airport.

In addition, if there were delays before the cancellation, the passenger has the right to receive compensation according to the number of hours.

If the delay is more than 6 hours, the airline must provide a snack, give food (breakfast, lunch, dinner), compensation equivalent to 25% of the value of the unfulfilled journey, lodging (if overnight is necessary), transportation to and from the airport and allow a call telephone.
