Petition Refuse any request to suspend requirements for airlines to compensate customers
The UK aviation industry has requested support from the Government as a result of the coronavirus outbreak, and it has been reported that this includes requesting a moratorium on EC261 which requires airlines to compensate customers for cancelled flights.
More details
If the Government allowed this moratorium on EC261, passengers would lose their legal right to receive compensation for flights cancelled by the airlines, resulting in further financial hardship to the already hard pressed public in this time of financial constraint and uncertainty.
