Involuntary Cancel

An Involuntary Cancel occurs when an airline cancels a passenger's flight due to circumstances beyond the passenger's control. This type of cancellation is initiated by the airline, not the passenger, and can happen for various reasons, including operational disruptions, severe weather conditions, technical issues, strikes, or regulatory restrictions.
