# FlightPayback

> FlightPayback checks, for free, whether an airline owes a passenger cash compensation for a delayed or cancelled flight under Canada's Air Passenger Protection Regulations (APPR): flights to, from or within Canada, on any airline. Large airlines owe $400, $700 or $1,000 per passenger (small airlines $125, $250 or $500) depending on the arrival delay, when the cause was within the airline's control. FlightPayback prepares documents the passenger sends themselves; it is not a law firm and its results are not legal advice.
