Airlines can also do this. They just have to refund your ticket, but good luck buying a replacement same day.

- londons_explore 4y agoIt's worth knowing that most courts worldwide consider a ticket or reservation to be a binding agreement to provide the services, and to accept liability when the services cannot be provided. That means if they boot you from the flight or hotel room, they have to pay for your costs to find a replacement. Yes, many companies have terms that try to limit their liability, but those terms usually aren't enforceable.
- theshrike79 4y agoThis is actually a travelling hack. Airlines overbook and will try to get out of it by refunding your ticket. Refuse the refund. They'll up the price a few times. You can get up to an upgraded ticket on a later flight + hotel stay if the stars align.
- Symbiote 4y agoEU rules allow this with at least 14 days notice. Less than that, and the airline needs to provide compensation — €250, €400 or €600 depending on the length of the flight. https://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/travel/passenger-rights/air/ https://europa.eu/youreurope/citizens/travel/passenger-right...
- dillondoyle 4y agoGood tip! Also in my experience airlines will go out of there way to help and rebook. Sometimes it is the next day though which sucks but isn't totally apples to oranges ;)
- lostmsu 4y agoShould add a similar rule for AirBNB
