Next Years Flights Cancelled..

12 Posts
Hi,
I have notification from the airline that our flights have now been cancelled and the offer of new flights but from a different airport.
Now, that might not sound too much of a problem but we live on an offshore island and it incurs a lot more travelling costs and overnight accommodation to catch the new flights.
The airline is only offering 40p per mile between the two airports by way of compensation.
Is that all we are entitled to?:mad:

If you do not want to accept the flights you can have a refund (irrespective of fare rules)
schedule change can happen with any airline
It's the timing of the extra travel and new flights that will force us to most probably fly to the new airport rather than drive and also will require an extra overnight stay when we return from holiday...
The airline has offered us a full refund but we would still need to book the flights anyway. Its the extra accommodation and link flights that will cost us.. :-(

The airline has stated they owe me zero compensation due to how much notice theyve given us.
They have offered the alternative flights from another carrier at another airport and said they are only obliged to pay 40pence per mile for the distance between the two airports... im guessing theyre correct?:o
I do note that the HMRC mileage allowance is 45 pence if im splitting hairs.....
