ILIAMNA Independent flight intelligence

Not an airline, operator, broker, or booking service.

Rights routing room / four jurisdictions / seven records

Rights begin with the route, not the payout.

A cancelled flight is not one universal legal event. The journey, operating carrier, reservation, notice, cause, accepted alternative, and current authority can all change the path. Build the record before chasing a number.

Route the seven records

Concept, not event. Generated with Gemini 3.1 Flash Image. This invented corridor is not a real airport, disruption, airline response, legal notice, or available journey.

One disruption / seven records

Do not let the event erase the journey.

Keep each record exact, dated, and attributable. An unknown cause, carrier role, notice time, or accepted alternative stays unknown until a responsible source resolves it.

  1. 01 JR

    Journey

    Origin, destination, connections, reservation, and unused sectors

    Cancellation, delay, denial, downgrade, bag, or assistance issue

    Original itinerary, messages, boarding records, notes, and receipts

  7. 07 RM

    Current authority, requested outcome, response, and next check

Build the case file

Open the smallest useful record.

These guides organize your own evidence locally. None receives a booking, contacts an airline, checks status, predicts a legal outcome, or submits a claim.

Ticket structure

Find the edges of the reservation.

Keep the reservation, issued ticket, marketing carrier, operating carrier, and every separately purchased flight on distinct lines. Map the ticket handoff

Immediate recovery

Work the next broken commitment.

Stabilize the journey, identify who controls the next move, keep evidence, and avoid turning a rushed counter exchange into the final record. Open the recovery sequence

Responsibility

Name who sold, issued, and operated.

Put operator identity, ticket structure, flexibility, and disruption exposure beside the fare before the trip begins. Compare the responsibility chain

Journey geography

Route the legal question before the route.

Keep departure, arrival, connection, surface sector, local date, ticket, and operating carrier visible before choosing an authority. Open the route records

Baggage evidence

Trace the bag separately from the passenger.

Preserve the tag, receipt, collection instruction, recheck task, reroute, and any later property report as their own evidence chain. Trace the bag handoff

Whole journey

Keep the remedy beside the next deadline.

Record the flight problem without losing sight of the onward ground trip, accommodation, pickup, event, or fixed commitment that breaks next. Build the private journey clock

Four maps / no universal shortcut

Start with the scope test published by the authority.

These are routing prompts, not coverage verdicts. Another national law, treaty, tariff, contract, package rule, insurance policy, or card benefit may also matter.

United States

Is the flight to, from, or within the United States, and who is the merchant of record?

Record the cancellation or change, alternative offered, affirmative choice, unused service, seller, and operating carrier. Do not treat a voucher and a refund as the same record.

Open 14 CFR Part 260

European Union

Where does the flight depart and arrive, and is the operating airline an EU airline?

Use the current scope table first. Then keep cancellation, delay, denied boarding, connection, bag, and assistance questions separate.

Open EU passenger-rights guidance

United Kingdom

Does the flight depart the UK or arrive on an airline covered by the current UK test?

Keep care while waiting separate from refund, alternative transport, expenses, and compensation. Separate bookings can change the onward-flight analysis.

Open UK CAA

Canada

Is the flight to, from, or within Canada, and what reason and control category is documented?

Do not classify the cause from an airport rumor. Preserve each stated reason and later update because the control analysis may remain unresolved during travel.

Open CTA and APPR

Before choosing an alternative

Write down what the choice changes.

A refund, rebooking, rerouting, voucher, expense, and compensation question can be different records. Capture the offer in its own words and use the current authority before responding.

01 / Travel

Do you still need to reach the destination?

Record the next fixed commitment, realistic arrival need, and current alternative. Do not assume accepting transport preserves or waives every other issue.

02 / Offer

What exactly was offered and accepted?

Preserve the amount, form, validity, restrictions, itinerary, response action, time, and channel. A button label is not the whole agreement.

03 / Record

Which question remains unresolved?

Separate transport, care, unused service, expenses, baggage, compensation, insurance, and complaint paths. Ask the authority responsible for that record.

Evidence locker / private by design

Keep the original and every later version.

Iliamna does not collect these records. Save them in a place you control, with local dates, time zones, and the source of every statement.

Change watch / 26 July 2026

A political agreement is not the same as an applicable rule.

Passenger-rights frameworks are actively changing. Check formal publication, entry into force, application date, transitional rules, journey date, and the authority's current consumer guidance.

This page avoids fixed payout tables and legal calculators for that reason. Recheck every source for the actual event before relying on it.
