Flight affected? You may have rights either way.
ATC disruptions are often ruled "extraordinary circumstances", so fixed compensation isn't guaranteed - but refunds, rerouting and care duties can still apply. Free check, no win no fee.

Book transfer →About San Diego International
San Diego International Airport operates from one of the most constrained airfield footprints of any major US commercial airport, with a single runway on a peninsula between downtown San Diego and San Diego Bay. The limited real estate makes expansion effectively impossible, and the airport operates at high utilisation during peak hours. The coastal location means morning marine layer is a regular feature in May and June — known locally as "June Gloom" — though it typically burns off by midday.
