HOW STRONG IS THIS CLAIM?
Strong claim
Strong case — airlines usually pay these.
- ✓A delay of 23h 32m is well past the 3-hour threshold, leaving little room to dispute.
- ✓Weather was clear at both airports, removing the airline’s most common defence.
✓ WHY IT QUALIFIES
Arrival delay of 1412 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 (3,224 km) sets the band: €400 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.
