Air Canada will pay compensation to the passengers bumped off flights

Air Canada agrees to pay the compensation to the passengers who are taken off from flights due to overbooked flights. Air Canada filed documents to the Canadian Transportation Agency in which airline proposed compensation to the passengers who have to wait for flights. This proposal was made in response to federal ruling that airline is providing with $100 cash or $200 vouchers to the passengers if flight is delayed which is not reasonable.

Air Canada stated in the documents that passengers who are delayed for more than six to eight hours on domestic flight are eligible for 200% of the one-way fare and passengers who are delayed for up to six hours are eligible for 100% of fare and passengers who waited less than one hour will be provided with $100 to $150 cash as compensation.
