I was supposed to fly back to Dublin from Heathrow last Thursday evening with Aer Lingus. I got a text on Wednesday evening telling me the flight was cancelled. I rebooked for Saturday morning and got a text on Friday saying this was cancelled.

The only available flights with Aer Lingus out of any London airport were on the Monday morning. I needed to be home for an important family event on the Sunday, so ended up getting getting a Ryanair flight on the Saturday evening from Birmingham airport.

During this time I accumulated a number of expenses - 2 extra hotel nights, a train to Birmingham, a Ryanair flight and food expenses.

I have receipts for all of the above. Am I able to claim back on any of these expenses?

Thanks
