Rebooked due cancellation?
There's a petition on change.org started by a pax who is stuck in an Egyptian resort due to their flight home being cancelled. I won't bore you with the details.
But it did make me wonder. If the "cancelling" airline rebooked the pax on a flight (on a different airline) home that required a connection in Europe and the final leg gets cancelled which of the two airlines is responsible for what in the way of compensation, rebooking etc.? I suspect it would be different if the pax took matters into their own hands and purchased new tickets because that would be a completely new contract with airline carrying them home?
