HOW STRONG IS THIS CLAIM?

85/ 100

Strong claim

Strong case — airlines usually pay these.

  • ✓A delay of 7h 10m 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 MAY QUALIFY

Arrival delay of 430 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 (2,340 km) sets the band: up to €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.

Why was 4Y1285 delayed?

  • Airlines don’t publish the cause, and we don’t know it for this flight.
  • That day at Munich, our radar recorded 0 other The airline flights and 1 flight on 1 other airline cancelled or 3+ hours late.

To refuse compensation, the airline has to prove the cause was an extraordinary circumstance that could not have been avoided even if all reasonable measures had been taken (EC261 Article 5(3)).

Technical faults almost never count, and neither does a strike by the airline’s own staff. The EU’s top court has ruled on both (C-549/07, C-28/20).

Severe weather and air traffic control limits can count, but the airline must show they caused this flight’s disruption.

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