BA 217 Flight Cancelled: Refund

British Airways must provide the passenger with a full refund of the fare and any other costs they incurred as a result of the cancellation. If you had to re-book your flight at your cost or paid for hotel and food, British Airways must reimburse you for such expenses.

Keep the receipts for any of your expenses and let our professional team sort this out with British Airways. Airlines take our complaints more seriously than ones submitted by a passenger without expensive legal assistance.

Importantly avoid accepting vouchers instead of refund, as it typically has restrictions and limited validity time. Airlines always try to force passengers to accept vouchers, because British Airways knows that most of the vouchers will be unused and expired.
