Delayed by exactly 24 hours

[Alex Henrie]

Hello everyone,

My flight with American Airlines was canceled today due to mechanical
problems. I have been rescheduled for the same flight plan tomorrow
morning. This means that I will arrive in Amsterdam Thursday at 8:15am
instead of Wednesday at 8:15am, and I will arrive in The Hague about
an hour after that.

Fortunately, remembering how much trouble I've had with international
flights in the past, I had planned an extra day of tourism before the
conference just in case. So even with a full day of delay, I should
still be there for all of WineConf and some tourism besides.

Looking forward to seeing you!

-Alex

Since it is a flight to the EU the EU passenger rights tingy should apply even though it is American Airlines and you are now owed €600

I think that only applies to EU citizens. I know last time I was delayed in a European airport only EU citizens got the compensation.  But maybe worth double checking.

I believe it is for everyone. My brother actually runs a company (claiming)
helping out passengers as it is a pain to get the refund. I can forward
people interested to him.

Huh, I can't find any explicit information confirming or invalidating your statement. However, I got my direction / non-EU airline info backwards. If you are flying on a non-EU airline into the EU you are out of luck. However, what matters is who is actually operating the flight. If AA sold you a ticket for British Airways or Finnair you're still flying on an EU airline.

There are also plenty of websites that will deal with your claim with no risk for you, but will grab 25% of the compensation + VAT in exchange.

Thanks for the information! Unfortunately, the flight was through
American Airlines itself, so I can't claim any monetary compensation.
The airline did give me some free airport food though.
