HOW STRONG IS THIS CLAIM?

0/ 100

Unlikely to qualify

Uphill case — the airline has a real argument.

Scored in full once the claim is created.

✓ WHY IT QUALIFIES

Arrival delay of 219 minutes, measured at the destination doors (Sturgeon; Germanwings C-452/13). Three hours or more pays the same as a cancellation.

Covered by EC261; the distance (9,140 km) sets the band: €600 per passenger.

☔ WEATHER AT THE TIME

Weather evidence is pulled from the airports’ own records when the claim is created — it’s what answers the airline’s “extraordinary circumstances” letter.

Weather can excuse compensation, never care: meals, hotel, and rebooking are owed regardless of cause.
