## See your delay thresholdand fixed payout

We use your flights, layover window, historical first-flight delay patterns, and airport reliability to calculate the first-flight delay threshold that would trigger a fixed payout.

Built for the flights you enter — not a generic estimate.

## Check your delay threshold before you book

Enter both flights to see whether your separate-ticket itinerary qualifies, what first-flight delay threshold applies, and what fixed payout could apply if your first flight is delayed.

### Why separate tickets are risky

If your first flight is delayed on separate tickets, the second airline usually does not have to rebook you.

### Why quotes are live before buying

The quoting engine is live so you can check the delay threshold before you commit to an itinerary. Buying opens soon — the waitlist lets you buy as soon as access opens.
