Description
People stranded at airports across the country and in San Diego are now trying to find any way possible to get home and during that process some are renting cars, hotel rooms and spending more money. But will that money be reimbursed and what will happen to flight tickets?
"It is good to know if you're flight is cancelled for any reason, including bad weather, you are entitled to a refund," said AAA spokesperson Doug Shupe.
He says passengers are also entitled to a refund if the airline has a scheduling change. Airlines do not have to refund non-refundable tickets, but they can issue a travel credit for future use.
Airhelp.com and FlightRight.com are helpful websites to see if you can get reimbursed. All you have to do is fill out a quick form.
