What are passenger rights?

When flights are cancelled or significantly delayed due to operational issues, passengers often have rights to rebooking, refunds, or compensation, depending on the airline and the specific regulations of the country. In this case, passengers likely had to rebook, and the airline would typically assist with arrangements for the next available flight.
