Airlines warned over compensation

For the last two years, airlines should have been paying passengers up to 600 euros (£400) for a cancelled flight.

However, the European Commission says passengers are often not informed of their rights, and thousands each year say they have not received payouts. The commission is threatening legal action unless the law is made to work.

here in the states, they’re practically daring us to fly.
