Can passengers claim for this FR4683 cancellation?
Ryanair cancelled flight FR4683 from Bologna to Brussels South Charleroi on September 16, 2026. The route is 834 km. It sits in the EU 261 band for flights up to 1,500 km. EU Regulation 261/2004 can require compensation when the airline gave less than 14 days' notice and the replacement flight did not arrive close to the original time. The airport boards do not record when passengers were told.
Night-time air traffic control strike at Charleroi
Skeyes controllers at Brussels South Charleroi stopped work every night from 22:00 to 08:00 between 16 and 23 September. Aircraft that could not land in the evening were missing for the next morning’s first departures, so cancellations hit both late arrivals and early departures.
Usually an extraordinary circumstance, so no EU 261 cash compensation. Airlines still owe meals, a hotel if you are stuck overnight, and the choice of a refund or a new flight. The airline still has to prove that this event caused the disruption to FR4683. A technical fault, a crew shortage or a strike by the airline’s own staff on the same day is not an extraordinary circumstance, and still pays out.

Owed unless the new flight left no more than 1 hour early and landed less than 2 hours late.
- Often owed
Told 7 to 13 days before
Owed unless the new flight left no more than 2 hours early and landed less than 4 hours late.
- Not owed

Distance band
What this route is worth

€250
€400
€600
Flights within the EU over 1,500 km are paid at €400, and arriving three to four hours late on a flight over 3,500 km halves the payment to €300.
