What We Cover / Canceled flights
Canceled flights
Major passenger-rights regimes generally separate refund or rerouting rights from any additional fixed compensation. Whether either applies, and in what form, depends on the itinerary, notice, cause and governing rule.
What it can pay.
Ceilings and entitlements under the named rule, per passenger, before our fee. What applies to your itinerary is confirmed during review, and every estimate stays an estimate until then.
What you will need
- The cancellation notice, with its date (email or app screenshot)
- Booking confirmation
- Your rebooking or refund paperwork, if any

Good to know
- The 14-day line is measured to when the airline told you, not when the flight was due.
- A close replacement can remove the compensation altogether, not just reduce it: told 7 to 14 days ahead and rerouted to leave no more than 2 hours early and land under 4 hours late, or told inside 7 days and rerouted to leave no more than 1 hour early and land under 2 hours late. Outside those windows the full amount stands.
- A refund does not cancel your compensation claim. They are separate rights.
Delayed Get Paid is not taking standalone flight-expense or refund-only cases at launch. The airline still has obligations, and the next-steps page explains how to pursue them directly.
