Hi folks,

Apologies if this is in the wrong section.

I just wondered if someone could answer a quick question. My brother-in-law is about to depart Singapore to Riydah, where he is supposed to transit for 1.5 hours before taking a connecting flight to Paris. All is a through-booking entirely flying with Saudi Airlines.

Only thing is, the SIN - RUH flight is delayed 2 hours. Now, if, upon arrival in Riyadh, he finds that the RUH - CDG is also sufficiently delayed - no problem. But if RUH - CDG goes on time then... he'll have missed it.

The next RUH - CDG with Saudi Airlines is 2 days later. Will Saudi Airlines put him on that flight for free? Also, what happens in the mean time? Are Saudi Airlines obliged to put him up in a hotel for the two days or will he be left to fend for himself in Saudi Arabia?
