What can I do after the flight is delayed?

Flight delays seem to be commonplace. I have met it twice myself and summed up some experiences. Let's share.

1, be patient and calm Delay is unexpected, don't be overly anxious or angry. Stay calm and wait for the arrangement of the airline.

2. Communicate with airlines in time, ask about the specific situation and find out whether the flight is cancelled or delayed. Always pay attention to the flight information update, the flight status may change at any time, always pay attention to the flight information, and ensure timely response measures.

3. Check immediately whether you have purchased delay insurance. If you buy it, you will have the right to claim compensation. If you have not bought it, remember to buy it next time.

If the flight is cancelled, don't be nervous and communicate with the airline staff. At this time, you can choose to change to the next flight. If there is no flight on that day, you can also ask the airline to arrange accommodation. Usually there are two people in a room. If you are a senior member of an airline, you can live in a single room.

What should I do while waiting?

1, I usually find a place to charge first, keep the power of my mobile phone, play games, brush videos, voice and video chat.

Walk around the airport and get familiar with the environment. Some airports are also worth visiting, such as Changi Airport in Singapore and Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam. There are not only many duty-free shops here, but also museums and botanical gardens, which is a major attraction in itself. However, the probability of international flight delay is relatively low, but even if there is no delay, I suggest you go to the airport in advance.

The boarding gate will be crowded and the environment will be noisy when there is a delay. If you want to avoid noisy crowds, coffee shops or restaurants are a good place to go. Spend tens of dollars to buy a comfortable seat and a relatively quiet environment. This wave will not lose money.

Having said that, playing games on mobile phones may be a common operation for most people to pass the time. Especially when there is a delay after boarding, in addition to sleeping in a closed and narrow cabin, you can only play mobile phones or read books. ?

Some friends will ask, if the airline fails to deliver me to my destination on time, can I claim compensation? If it is reasonable, the airline can only change or refund your ticket for free because of weather, air traffic control and other reasons. There is usually no compensation. At most, some food and drinks will be distributed during the waiting period, and overnight accommodation and transportation will be arranged. Occasionally, under the collective argument of passengers, airlines will compromise and pay hundreds of dollars each.

If the reason for the delay in departure is the airline's responsibility, passengers can seek corresponding compensation, such as catering, accommodation or refund. It is ok to make reasonable demands, but it is not recommended to have conflicts with airlines or claim compensation. Believe me, the airline is more anxious than you when it is delayed. After all, every minute of delay is a loss of glistening money. The urgent task is to cooperate with the requirements of the ground crew, wait patiently for takeoff or find another travel plan.

Once the flight was cancelled at Shenzhen airport because of the weather, and the surrounding hotels were full, saying that accommodation could not be arranged. After consultation, the transportation fee per person 150 was finally reimbursed.

The delay is really unpleasant, but can we also try to turn this resentment and anger into goodwill and goodwill, so that we can care about the old people, girls and children waiting for the plane and look forward to the next journey calmly.

After all, the flight will not take off one minute in advance because of our urging; Because of our patience, we won't be a second late.

At this moment, the most important thing for us is to take good care of ourselves and the people around us and ask them for food and clothing. I believe they will also satisfy everyone. As long as everyone is more patient and tolerant, the happiness of the journey will come quietly.
