<h1>Airline faces claims for care, information, and delay compensation after onboard AC and electrical failures caused six-hour departure delay</h1> A carrier operating an international flight on Sep 11 experienced onboard air-conditioning and electrical faults after passengers had boarded at the departure airport, leading to deplaning after roughly two hours, provision of refreshments and meals at the terminal, an aircraft change, and eventual departure nearly six hours late. Social-media footage reportedly showed passengers fanning themselves prior to deplaning. Legally this raises issues of carrier obligations under air passenger rights and consumer protection laws, including duty to provide timely information, care while stranded, and potential entitlement to delay compensation or reimbursement depending on applicable regulations and fault.
