For domestic flights in the U.S., airlines have to pay you 200% of the value of your one-way ticket up to $775 if you arrive at your destination one to two hours past your originally scheduled itinerary or 400% of the one-way ticket price, up to $1,550 if your arrival delay is longer than two hours.
Can I claim compensation if my flight was overbooked?
To qualify for compensation when your flight is overbooked, you have to have involuntary denial of boarding. That means you have to have been denied boarding due to the flight being too full. As will most compensation, if you show up late or without your passport, it's your own fault.
Where is the least bumpy place to sit on a plane?
