Cancelling due to sudden work: are you compensated?

More than once you may have to cancel a booked trip due to urgent work. The question is whether cancellation benefits apply to this situation.

Each contract lists the accepted cancellation reasons. Sudden work is only paid if it is on that list, usually with specific conditions.

If a work reason is not on the list, you are unlikely to be compensated even if the loss is real. So read this section carefully before relying on it.

In any case, keep proof such as an assignment order or company email. Objective evidence always makes a claim more convincing.
