      What Is the APPR?

      The APPR ensures that passengers travelling to, from, and within Canada are protected. It applies to all airlines operating in Canadian airspace.

      The Canadian Transportation Agency ensures that passengers receive fair treatment in the event of a flight delay, cancellation, or overbooking.

      History and the Regulation

      The APPR was introduced in 2019 with the primary aim of strengthening air passenger rights in Canada and ensuring fair treatment when disruptions are within the airline’s control.

      Before 2019, protections for air travellers were more limited, and it was harder to claim refunds or compensation for delayed or cancelled flights. The APPR now sets out clear rules on compensation and passenger assistance.

      When Are You Eligible for Compensation?

      You may be eligible for compensation if:

      - Your flight was delayed.
      - Your flight was cancelled.
      - Your baggage was lost, damaged, or delayed.
      - You were denied boarding due to overbooking.


      These situations must fall within the airline’s control and not be caused by extraordinary circumstances.
      For example, staffing issues or technical problems with the aircraft may entitle you to compensation, whereas extreme weather or other events beyond the airline’s control do not.

      APPR Compensation: Key Points

      • Up to £1,400 in monetary compensation for flight disruption.

      • Covers flight delays and cancellations, denied boarding, and baggage issues.

      • Applies to flights travelling to, from, and within Canada, including connecting flights.

      • In the event of a flight disruption, airlines must offer alternative travel arrangements or a refund.

      • Keep your original ticket, boarding pass, and any correspondence with the airline.

      Exceptions: When You Are Not Entitled to Compensation

      There are certain situations where airlines are not required to pay compensation, even in cases of flight delays, cancellations, or denied boarding. These may include:

      • Weather conditions (such as storms or fog).
      • Security threats.
      • Air traffic control restrictions.
      • Strikes outside the airline’s control.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      • How Much Compensation Can I Receive Under the APPR?

        Compensation amounts range from £75 to £580 for flight delays and cancellations, depending on the airline’s size and the length of the delay. Compensation for denied boarding ranges from £525 to £1,400. However, airlines are not required to pay compensation if the disruption was caused by extraordinary circumstances.

      • What Flights Are Covered by the APPR?

        Flights travelling to, from, and within Canada, including connecting flights, are covered by the Air Passenger Protection Regulations (APPR). Both large and small airlines operating in Canadian airspace are required to comply with the APPR. Before submitting your claim, make sure you have your original ticket, boarding pass, and any correspondence with the airline available.

      • Does the APPR Apply to International Travellers?

        Yes, if your flight delay involves Canada, the APPR applies regardless of your nationality. In cases of long delays or cancellations, the airline must provide alternative travel arrangements and may be required to pay financial compensation if no suitable alternative flight is available.
