Flight Delays

The next time you get stuck at the airport – here's what to expect...

All it takes is one big snowstorm to throw everyone’s flights off. Genevieve Shaw Brown from Travelocity tells us what to expect:

• If you’re already at the airport – make yourself comfortable – there’s not much you can do – it doesn’t give you priority over ticketed passengers.

• Take any flight headed in the right direction. You might not be able to get to your destination – but if you’re brave and able to improvise – you WILL make progress.

• You’ll probably get a refund – so if you can reschedule – do it.

A lot of people think they’ll have more access to information if they’re at the airport – but you might have better luck on the phone. If you’re not already there – don’t go – the most you’ll get is a food voucher and a cot - if you’re lucky.
