Compensation?

[ITF]

Like many, my flight has been canceled due to the occupation. Etiade is my airline. During my conversation with them, I brushed over the idea of financial compensation -- we are now obviously paying more for hotels/food/etc.

The idea was quickly shot down rightfully so -- they are not to blame.

Upon watching the news I have seen Suvar Airport is redirecting tourists to nearby hotels -- is this at tourist or airport expense?

Long story short, my question is - are we fully responsible for our (extended) stay financially or is there some recourse available?

Only if you have travel insurance I suspect- you certainly can't expect any from the airlines, airport or government.

try to speak to the menager of the airline airport operations or the office in town than an ordinary clerk in the airport - file a written complain and a claim of compensation.

of course they are not to blame, but they are the first instance to contact.

all routes flying to europe would give a compensation under the EU law
