Lawyer explains passengers' legal rights to refunds if Spirit flight is canceled
Attorney Dale Appell says it’s on passengers to know what rights they have when they make an airline reservation, when it comes to refunds and credits.
The U.S. Department of Transportation states you’re entitled to a refund if a flight is canceled -- whether due to mechanical errors, weather, or something else -- but when it comes to other expenses, it depends on the airline.
FOX 13 read through Spirit Airline’s "Contract of Carriage" to get the details. According to the contract, with "limited exceptions, the airline will not reimburse guests for flights they book on other carriers."
So if you rebook on Delta, Spirit is probably not picking up that tab. They also will not assume expenses, like hotesl and food, due to a cancelation. But it does say in the case of cancelation of their doing, if they can rebook you the next day, they may offer overnight hotel accommodations for non-local guests.
