When an airline cancels your flight, you are entitled to a full refund, or being rebooked onto an alternative flight. Sometimes airlines will offer you vouchers which you can choose to accept, but the option you choose is entirely up to you.
(We’ve got a wider guide explaining your refund rights when a flight is delayed or cancelled).
We’ve put together a list of the cancellations for some of the biggest airlines below for today (June 1). If you’re due to travel in the coming weeks, check the status of your flight regularly as services are subject to change at the last minute.
