      Flights compensation
      By Ashraf Fares June 19, 2025
      Flight disruptions are more common than most travelers expect, and when your plans are thrown into chaos, the last thing you want is to deal with confusing airline policies. Many passengers don't realize they might be entitled to monetary compensation for these issues. Whether your flight was delayed for hours or cancelled without notice, it's worth knowing your rights. If you’ve ever been placed in a lower class than you booked, you're also likely entitled to downgrade flight compensation . This applies when airlines switch your ticketed class to a lower one, and you may be eligible for a partial refund. Understanding your rights in these scenarios ensures you're not leaving money on the table
