Air Passenger Rights – Delays and Cancellations

As a passenger flying with Philippine Airlines, you are entitled to certain rights in the event of flight delays, cancellations, or denied boarding. If your flight is disrupted, you may be eligible for compensation under specific regulations such as EU 261/2004, also known as EC 261. This law protects air travelers on flights departing from an EU airport or flights arriving in the EU on an EU-based carrier, such as Philippine Airlines, provided the flight originated within the EU. If your Philippine Airlines flight started in the EU, or if you were flying from a non-EU country to an EU destination with PR, you may have rights to compensation.

Under EU 261, you could be entitled to monetary compensation if your flight was delayed by more than three hours upon arrival, cancelled without adequate notice, or if you were denied boarding due to overbooking. The compensation amount depends on the flight distance:

• For flights up to 1,500 km: €250 per passenger
• For flights between 1,500 km and 3,500 km: €400 per passenger
• For flights over 3,500 km: €600 per passenger

It's important to note that these rights apply when the disruption was not caused by extraordinary circumstances, such as severe weather or air traffic control strikes. You may also have the right to care, including meals, refreshments, and hotel accommodation if necessary, during extended delays. For cancelled flights, you can choose between rerouting to your final destination or a refund of your ticket.
