HOW STRONG IS THIS CLAIM?

65/ 100

Good claim

Decent case — worth filing; expect one round of pushback.

  • ✓A delay over 3 hours meets the core requirement for compensation.
  • ✓Weather was clear at both airports, removing the airline’s most common defence.
  • ⚠The delay is very close to the 3-hour line, where exact measurement matters most.

✓ WHY IT MAY QUALIFY

Arrival delay of 185 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 (1,241 km) sets the band: up to €250 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.
