QUICK GUIDE

A missed connection: checks before buying again

Clarify the original booking’s protection and available assistance before buying a replacement.

The essentials

Clarify the original booking’s protection and available assistance before buying a replacement.

Contract

Distinguish a single booking from separate tickets; responsibility can differ.

Records

Keep delay confirmation, arrival time and carrier correspondence.

New plan

Match baggage, accommodation and entry requirements to the new route, not merely seat availability.

Keep a clear case history

Record times, order references, correspondence participants and decisions already made. Send a specific request without unnecessary personal data. Distinguish a promised remedy from a completed one: replacement arrangements need confirmation and refunds must arrive. When safety is at risk, organise a safe alternative before continuing the dispute.
