Court dismisses WestJet legal challenge of order to compensate passenger for flight delay

Summary
An appeals court has dismissed a legal challenge filed by WestJet over an order to compensate a passenger for a flight cancellation, potentially setting a precedent for other such cases. Canada's transport regulator — The Canadian Transport Agency (CTA) had ordered WestJet to pay a passenger $1,000 for a 2021 flight cancellation. The Federal Court of Appeal ruled Monday that there was "no reviewable error" in the CTA's decision.
