chilli13 Posted November 27, 2003 Report Share Posted November 27, 2003 what exactly does rule 240 say about compensation? $100/h each hour a flight is delayed above some threshold & does that apply to all IETA airlines or just UA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANA aircrafts do not fly out of Seattle (unfortunately) so they're not an option for the best fares and routing. Occasionally, the best fares--presumably when 875 or 876 are already full--are offered by UAL with a routing on ANA aircrafts via LAX or SFO. But from SEA, it's not an attractive deal at all.

I wish! :-) Actually, each US airline has its own interpretation of the rule. Compensations details are not not federally mandated anymore (since deregulation). In the case of United, they're (by their own printed interpretation of the rules) bound to re-route you for the next leg of your journey if the delay exceeds 2 hours. Their rules don't mention cash compensation so it's up to them. If they can't re-route you, they should compensate you, but the form or amount is up to them. Of course, the rule applies only if the delay is entirely their fault, so that exclude weather. Uncle Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
