Fixed compensation
Do not assume it is automatically due. The cause, applicable passenger-rights regime and the airline's response all matter.

Nolo weather travel alert covers Kahului Airport, Maui
American Airlines has placed Kahului Airport, Maui (OGG) inside its current Nolo weather travel-alert area for travel scheduled from 24 to 28 September 2026. The waiver is a precautionary passenger measure and does not mean every flight at OGG has been cancelled.

The airline's official travel-alert page lists Honolulu, Maui/Kahului, Kona and Lihue among the airports covered by the Nolo event and provides eligible customers with rebooking flexibility. Individual flight operation remains carrier-specific and should be checked directly.
Operational conditions can change quickly. Check the airline and airport for live status before travelling.
Compensation is only one part of your rights
Weather can materially affect airline liability, and United States passenger protections do not create an automatic EU-style fixed payment for every weather delay. The actual cancellation, significant schedule change and airline offer determine the relevant refund or rebooking options.
Refund or rerouting
A cancellation can create travel-remedy rights even where an extraordinary circumstance prevents fixed compensation.
Care and expenses
Where the applicable rules provide a duty of care, reasonable meals, accommodation or transport can remain separate from compensation.
What to do now
Check the operating carrier before travelling to Kahului Airport, Maui, consider the applicable waiver where useful, and retain any airline-issued cancellation, delay, rebooking or refund notice.
