Air Passenger Bill of Rights

The Air Passenger Bill of Rights, based on Joint DOTC-DTI Administrative Order No. 01, protects you whenever you fly. This important legislation covers a range of situations you might encounter as a traveler, including:

  • Flight Delays and Cancellations: Learn what you're entitled to if your flight experiences disruptions.
  • Lost or Damaged Luggage: Understand the compensation process for misplaced or harmed baggage.
  • Overbooking: Find out your rights if the airline sells more tickets than there are seats on the plane.
  • Denied Boarding: Discover what recourse is available if you are prevented from boarding a flight.

The Air Passenger Bill of Rights also emphasizes your right to clear and accurate information from airlines before, during, and after your flight.
