European Commission 52d ago

Airlines cannot add a fuel surcharge to your ticket after you've already paid. Here's what your rights are if your flight gets cancelled. ✈️ Under EU rules on flight cancellations, airlines must show you the final price before you pay, no hidden fees added later. If your flight is cancelled, you are entitled to: ✅ A full refund, rerouting, or return ✅ Assistance at the airport ✅ Flight delay compensation for last-minute cancellations Airlines can only avoid paying flight delay compensation if they prove cancellation was caused by extraordinary circumstances, such as a genuine fuel supply failure. High fuel prices alone do not qualify. Currently, there is no evidence of jet fuel shortages. You can check your EU Air Passenger Rights here: https://link.europa.eu/btgHcn
