What Compensation Can You Get at Calgary International Airport?

At Calgary Airport, air passenger rights are protected under the Air Passenger Protection Regulations (APPR), not European laws. So, don’t expect EU rules to apply here unless your trip explicitly involves Europe.

You may qualify for compensation under APPR if your:

  • Delayed flight ran more than 3 hours behind schedule.

  • Trip was affected by a cancellation that you weren’t informed about in time.

  • The airline sold more tickets than seats and you couldn’t board.

Even international travellers can claim under APPR when departing from or connecting through Calgary. These protections apply to all air passengers, regardless of citizenship.

APPR vs EU261 – Which Rights Apply at Calgary International Airport?

At Calgary, the APPR is the only law that covers air passenger rights, unless your trip connects to Europe in a specific way.

So, unless Europe is part of your flight route, it’s Canadian rules you must follow.

Regulation differences

When You Are Eligible

You may be entitled to compensation if the disruption was the airline’s responsibility, for example:

- Strikes by airline staff

If any of these situations apply, it is worth submitting a claim. Not all cases result in compensation, but you could be entitled to receive up to £1,320.

When You Are Not Eligible

Even if you experience a disruption, airlines are not required to pay compensation if the cause was:

- Severe weather or unsafe conditions
- Airport or airline security threats
- Air traffic control delays
- Mechanical failures

However, airlines are still required to assist you. They must provide food and refreshments and cover any reasonable expenses. If you are delayed overnight, they should also arrange hotel accommodation.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How much compensation can I get from Calgary Airport?

    If your flight with a major airline was delayed or cancelled, you may be entitled to compensation ranging from £220 to £1,320. The exact amount depends on the length of the delay or whether you were affected by overbooking.

  • Does Canadian APPR apply to international travelers?

    Yes, air passenger rules apply to everyone flying out of Calgary, even if you live in another country. Flight cancellations, delays, and overbookings apply to everyone flying to or from Calgary. If the airline tells you otherwise, contact the Canadian Transportation Agency or let our team at Skycop help you.

  • What if my flight was delayed more than 3 hours?

    A delay of more than three hours or a cancellation can be enough to trigger a claim. You may be entitled to receive up to £520, depending on the total length of the delay. Unless the disruption was caused by extraordinary circumstances, such as severe weather or safety-related issues, it is worth submitting a claim.

  • How long do I have to claim compensation?
