Cancelled KL flights
 
Hey!
I'm booked on KL 1271 flight to Wroclaw, Poland on 6 Feb. It came to my attention that KLM flights to Wroclaw are being cancelled kinda frequently these days.. Do you have any idea why and maybe how likely is it for my flight to get cancelled? I really need to fly on that day so I hope I won't get bumped :)

Thanks!

Welcome to FT! There is really no way of knowing for certain whether a certain flight will operate, especially this far out in advance. I suspect that current cancellations are Covid related, though.

If you need to travel on that date, check whether KLM serves other nearby cities, ideally in Poland, that would have train service to your destination. If your flight is cancelled, ask to be booked to such a nearby place if KLM cannot rebook you on another flight on the right day to Wroclaw. You should plan to pay for the train ticket yourself. Alternatively, if the flight is cancelled, you are entitled to a full refund, so if the new flight is cheaper, it might be worthwhile (and easier) to purchase a new ticket yourself.

Also, familiarize yourself with the EC261 regulations. You especially have protections if the flight is cancelled within fourteen days of departure. There's a big sticky thread in the BA forum here on FT that gives definitive and detailed information.

Thank you for the warm welcome and your help :)
I am quite familiar with EC261 but I've never known rebooking to another city is an option. Well, I wouldn't mind flying to KRK (3x daily I guess) instead.

If you flight to Wroclaw gets cancelled just asked to be rebooked to WAW or KRK (if you don't mind it)
