Wow Air flight cancelled? This is what you can do.

• If you have booked a package trip that includes a flight to be operated by Wow Air, we recommend you contact the tour operator. The tour operator is obligated to provide a solution, such as arranging for alternative transport.
• If you have booked a ticket directly with Wow Air, your cancelled flight will probably not be rebooked. In this case, Wow Air recommends booking a new flight with a different airline at your own expense. Some airlines are expected to offer flights at a reduced rate. Wow Air will communicate this on the website.

Have you recently booked your ticket using a credit card? Then contact your credit card issuer. Ask if they can process a charge-back request to refund the amount paid.
