Airline Cancellations/Claims

[Legends-Lounge]

Never happened to me but a mate and his missus are stuck in Greece for an extra week due to Easy Jet cancelling their flight on Saturday. The have been told to make a claim for reasonable expenses when they get home. Anyone got first hand experience of what you can and cannot claim for?

Sure they aren't pulling a fast one? Easy jet fly more than 1 plane a week from Greece.

Corfu. And no. All other flights that day were OK. Just their's was cancelled which coincided with an air traffic controllers strike, which may or may not have happened. 100% legit. Next Saturday is the only flight with EJ that they can get back on all other departures fully booked.

[THE FLASH]

A flight with somebody else has to be cheaper than digs and grub in their eyes?

Yeah, surprised that they haven't been put on another carriers flight. Surely not all booked out at this time of year?

I guess nobody on here has been in that situation, so other than google things like this :

we are not being very helpful are we!

Do they have a holiday insurance advice line that may help?

Just had a message that they have a flight today, no further details. Let's see how this unfolds.
