How RecoverAir handles this

When an airline-caused delay results in a missed connection — meaning the first flight was late and you could not make your second — the airline is responsible for rebooking you at no cost and, in many cases, providing meals, accommodation, and compensation depending on the delay to your final destination.

RecoverAir reviews your missed connection, determines what the airline is obligated to provide, and pursues it. If the airline caused the delay, you should not be paying for hotels, meals, or new tickets out of pocket.

Frequently asked questions

Am I owed compensation for a carrier-caused missed connection?
If the airline's delay caused you to miss a connection on the same booking, you are entitled to rebooking at no cost and potentially meals, accommodation, and monetary compensation depending on the total delay.
What if I booked separate tickets?
If your tickets were booked separately, the protections are more limited — but depending on the circumstances, you may still have grounds for recovery. RecoverAir reviews your specific booking structure.
What documentation do I need for a missed connection claim?
Flight records, boarding passes, booking confirmations, and any receipts for out-of-pocket expenses. RecoverAir tells you exactly what is needed for your specific case.
