Strike at Paris-Charles de Gaulle airport at the beginning of July, Ryanair staff in Spain at the end of June, a multitude of cancelled flights at Lufthansa due to lack of staff, increase of covid-19 cases... the summer will not be easy for holiday makers in Europe who have decided to fly this summer. It is therefore important to take stock of the rights of travelers. For a cancelled flight, you should not forget to ask for a refund and compensation from the airline; for a strike of the staff of any airline, the refund of the ticket is also possible but not if the airport staff is on strike; also beware of intermediaries such as online platforms that have no obligation to take care of a re-routing or to refund the price of the plane ticket in case of flight cancellation. And if you can no longer leave for whatever reason, the refund will only take place if the plane ticket is cancelable and refundable. In case of a problem, you should always consider contacting the airline. Complaint forms are available on the websites. The different rights of the air traveler can be found on the website of the European Consumer Centre France
