My flight for today, UAL (United Air Lines) 2013 from Chicago O'Hare (ORD) to Miami (MIA), has been cancelled. Why?

I have not been rebooked until tomorrow AM. Am I entitled to any compensation?



Best Answer

Why?

United Flights Status says

UA 2013: We're sorry to let you know your flight on September 12 has canceled because your plane needed to be taken out of service for maintenance. Please check out your options on the United app under the My Trips section or at https://fly.united.com/vZxXKt.


Am I entitled to any compensation?

No. From https://www.transportation.gov/individuals/aviation-consumer-protection/flight-delays-cancellations

My flight is delayed - am I entitled to money or other compensation from the airline?

No. There are no federal laws requiring airlines to provide passengers with money or other compensation when their flights are delayed. Each airline has its own policies about what it will do for delayed passengers. If your flight is experiencing a long delay, ask airline staff if they will pay for meals or a hotel room. While some airlines offer these amenities to passengers, others do not provide any amenities to stranded passengers.

That's substantially different in Europe, but in the US the airlines have far fewer obligations.
