When your flight gets cancelled you don’t realize the airline owes you money not just a rebooking ✈️👀 WestJet is cancelling 495 flights right now and most passengers are accepting a rebooking without asking for compensation 👀 ━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💰 1. THE AIRLINE OWES YOU COMPENSATION NOT REBOOKING ▸ Rebooking is bare minimum not generosity ▸ Cancellation due to strike is airline responsibility ▸ Compensation is separate from flight change ━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🚨 2. CALL DIRECTLY AND ASK FOR COMPENSATION EXPLICITLY ▸ Airlines will not offer it unless you demand it ▸ Customer service script only includes rebooking ▸ You must say the words compensation and rights ━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📋 3. PASSENGER PROTECTION ACT COVERS YOU ▸ Not optional not discretionary it is law ▸ Airline must follow passenger protection rules ▸ Your cancellation qualifies for compensation ━━━━━━━━━━━━ ✈️ 4. GET REBOOKED ON ANY AIRLINE IMMEDIATELY ▸ Do not wait for next WestJet flight ▸ Demand seat on Air Canada Delta Flair today ▸ Airline pays for competitor booking ━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🏨 5. OVERNIGHT STAY MEALS EVERYTHING IS COVERED ▸ Stranded overnight means hotel is airline cost ▸ Meals are airline cost document everything ▸ Keep receipts for 30 days minimum ━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📞 6. GET A CONFIRMATION NUMBER FOR COMPENSATION PROMISE ▸ Screenshot everything with dates and times ▸ Airline agent name confirmation number ▸ Written proof saves you if they ghost ━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚖️ 7. THIS IS WHAT AIRLINES PRAY YOU NEVER FIND OUT ABOUT ▸ Most passengers accept rebooking and leave ▸ Airlines save millions because nobody asks ▸ Your rights only exist if you claim them ▸ Compensation is your legal entitlement not gift ━━━━━━━━━━━━ Stop accepting rebookings without asking for money. Airlines are banking on your silence 🧳✈️ #passengerrights #flightcancellation #airlinestrike #compensation
