Delay check
How AD8901's delay measures up
EU 261 counts the delay at the arrival gate, when the doors open, not at take-off or touchdown.
- 3h — where EU 261 compensation starts
- 4h — full amount on flights over 3,500 km
Airlines can still refuse when the cause was outside their control, such as severe weather or air traffic control restrictions.
