What may apply

Refund

May apply

A significant delay or cancellation may entitle you to a refund to your original form of payment if you choose not to travel.

Rebooking

Likely applies

The carrier will typically rebook you on its next available service at no additional fare.

Care (meals / hotel)

Cannot determine

Whether meal or hotel care applies depends on the overnight status and stated cause, which are not confirmed.

Cash compensation

Not indicated

This jurisdiction's rule version does not indicate fixed cash compensation for delay in this scenario.

What we still need to know

  • The final arrival delay once the flight operates or is cancelled.
  • The carrier's officially stated cause of the disruption.
  • Whether the disruption forces an overnight at the connection point.
Deadline

No filing deadline is indicated for a refund request under the cited version; carriers must process eligible refunds promptly.

Evidence checklist

  • Screenshot of the schedule change notice with its timestamp.
  • Boarding passes or itinerary confirmation for each segment.
  • Receipts for any meals or lodging paid out of pocket.
  • Any written communication stating the cause of the disruption.

Official sources

  • Official DOT aviation consumer protection page(primary source)
  • Carrier customer-service commitment (published)(carrier plan)

This is an estimate of what may apply under the cited rule version, based on the facts entered — not legal advice, and not a statement that you are owed anything. A contextual weather or airspace condition is not, by itself, legal cause. Confirm your situation against the official source above.
