Is the airline responsible for a missed protected connection?

A single ticket can support rerouting and final-destination delay claims under some rules. Verify the booking structure, operating carriers and actual final arrival.

What to check

Check whether the flights were on one ticket, what the airline offered, and whether you agreed to give up a seat or take a new flight. Small differences in those facts can change the claim path.

What to do next

Contact the operating airline while the remaining itinerary can still be changed. Keep a copy of its offer and your response.
