I missed a wedding because the airline canceled my flight and rebooked me two days later with no compensation. Are they actually allowed to do that?

You arrive at the airport, your flight gets canceled, and the airline calmly rebooks you for two days later. Then comes the real shocker. In many cases, yes, the airline may be allowed to do that without paying cash compensation, depending on where you are flying and why the cancellation happened.

It sounds clever, slightly suspicious, and just plausible enough to make you wonder if you’ve been overpaying this whole time.
