As we sit in self-quarantine and dream of better days filled with non-essential outside activities, many of us are on the Internet more than usual. To pass the time, some may have started research on a future trip. A road trip to a neighbouring city or a flight to somewhere farther. If your trip for the after-times will involve flying, now might be a good time to review your rights.
Last May, Canada finalized new regulations for air passenger protection and as of December 2019, all new regulations are now in effect. The bill was passed under the Canada Transportation Act to better protect and inform us – the airline passengers.
The Canadian Transportation Agency said “these regulations apply to all flights to, from, and within Canada. This includes connecting flights.”
