Cancelamento de Vôo
Por parte da companhia aérea Qualquer que seja o motivo do cancelamento,
você tem direito ao
reembolso da
passagem ou ao endosso. Por parte do passageiro se você desistir de
voar ou quiser alterar sua viagem, deve antes consultar o seu agente de
viagem ou a companhia aérea, tendo em vista as tarifas diferenciadas
existentes e os vários procedimentos a serem observados para cada caso.
A
right to compensation if your flight is
delayed
If a
flight is more than one hour and less
than two hours late arriving at its
destination (see definition of 'late
arrival' below) each passenger will
qualify for Level One compensation (see
section on compensation below).
If a
flight is more than two hours late
arriving at its destination, each
passenger will qualify for Level Two
compensation.
In
addition, if a flight is more than three
hours late departing, each passenger
will be offered a Three Hour Delay
compensation for each full three hours
of delay.
In
addition, if a flight becomes or is
expected to become more than four hours
late departing, the airline will offer
to make arrangements to transport
passengers on any other scheduled
carrier that can accommodate them to
their destination, in the same or better
class of service, and at no additional
cost to the passengers, regardless of
what the extra cost may be to the
airline.
In
addition, if a flight becomes or is
expected to become more than six hours
late, with at least four of those hours
falling between the hours of 11pm and
6am, each passenger will be offered an
Overnight Delay compensation.
If a
flight is 'chronically delayed' such
that, for more than one in every four
flights during the last 28 days, this
same flight has been delayed by more
than one hour arriving at its
destination, passengers will be entitled
to double the Level One or Level Two
compensation they would otherwise
receive.
A
right to compensation if your flight is
cancelled
If,
at any time subsequent to a passenger
paying in full for their airline ticket,
any one of the flights on their
itinerary is cancelled, the airline that
issued (plated) the ticket on which the
cancelled flight is part of must provide
timely notification of the cancellation
and offer (at the passenger's choice)
either alternate flights on the same
airline(s) as before or on any other
airlines that operate flights closer to
the time of the cancelled flights than
the alternate flights operated by the
ticketing airline itself.
As an
alternative, the passenger may ask for a
refund, either of their complete ticket
if they have not yet commenced their
travels, or of those affected parts of
their ticket if their journey has
commenced.
In
addition to arranging alternate flights
or refunding affected parts of an
itinerary, the airline will also pay
Level One compensation to each passenger.
If
the airline did not provide timely
notification, it will also be liable for
compensation as if the flight were
delayed, based on larger difference of
either the departure or arrival time of
the replacement flight(s) and the
original cancelled flight(s).
If a
flight is 'chronically cancelled' such
that, for more than one in every seven
flights during the last 28 days, this
same flight has been cancelled,
passengers will be entitled to double
the Level One compensation they would
otherwise receive.
In
the case of a cancellation directly
related to a declared state or national
disaster or emergency in either the
region in which the flight is scheduled
to take off or land, then - if the
airline makes a timely notification to
passengers, it will suffer no further
cancellation penalties, but will still
remain obliged to rebook passengers on
any available flight or to refund
tickets, and to provide delay
compensation in the form of meals and -
if overnight - accommodation as per the
provisions of the delay right.
