Cancelled Flight

[malagabob]

Departing flight cancelled But I have booked flights departing 2 days later. Nothing earlier. Staying in a private apartment. Can I claim for those missing days or does it have to be the whole stay. TIA.

you'll need to look at your insurance small print... bit of a b888er !

You need to separate out your rights with the airline from those with your insurer.

The airline was obliged to provide you with a full refund OR an alternative flight. (It's not clear from your post whether you took the refund and then booked completely fresh flights or whether you accepted a replacement flight two days after the one you'd originally booked).

IN ADDITION, unless the flight cancellation was due to circumstances wholly beyond the airline's control, you're entitled to €250 compensation if it was a short haul flight. (€400 for medium haul flights or €600 for long haul):

What, if anything, you can claim under your holiday insurance depends entirely upon what the small print says. Some budget policies might not provide any relevant cover, whereas other policies might pay out for the missing days.

I booked alternative flights myself Chris The next days flights were sold out and half the next days. So it was get in quick You can imagine the queue at Easyjet’s booking desk. Passengers from my flight and another destination that was cancelled as well.
