Dealing With Cancelled Flights

Things sometimes happen when you least expect them and it is the same during flights.  Everything has been packed and arranged.  You are wearing your best outfit, then suddenly, you receive a phone call saying that your  flight is  cancelled.  It would be more difficult if you are to travel with kids as you need to make more adjustments.  Below are some suggestions how to be prepared with cancelled  flights.

Remain calm.  Refrain from panicking and freaking out as  they would not do any good.  No matter how you react, it would not change the fact that the flight is cancelled.   Just show your kids your own example of dealing with it by showing flexibility.

Take advantage of Airline Royalty.   If you are constantly traveling, the airline management will let you avail your rewards program.  They give rewards to their loyal members, and they will be the first priority for the next flight  schedule.

Keep it to yourself first.  Upon knowing the bad news, do not make the announcement to your co-passengers.   Try to deal with the situation in private, compose yourself and think of your own resolution.  When you are done, reveal the bad news.

Know your options.  Some airlines provide hotel accommodation for their passengers if the flight is cancelled.  If you are far from home, choose to stay in a hotel. If you are at home, that is an advantage.  That means  another night to stay with your family.  Supposed the airline does not offer the accommodation, you can check if the management will provide reimbursement.  You can also ask about alternatives.

Be productive and make the most of it.  Instead of dwelling to the negative side, make use of that extra night or day wisely. You can get a manicure or pedicure. You may want to have foot spa, a facial or body massage.  You can also try to explore other business establishments near the airport or the hotel.  You can also try other cuisines from nearby restaurants.  Do not your cancelled flight ruin everything.
