The short answer
Was LO426 delayed long enough for EU 261 compensation?
LOT flight LO426 from Lisbon to Warsaw Chopin arrived about 3h 24m late on 12 October 2026, going by reported arrival times. That is right at the three-hour mark in EU Regulation 261/2004, which counts the delay until the doors open, so the exact gate time decides it. The route is 2,749 km. If it clears three hours, the statutory amount for this distance is €400 per passenger when the airline is responsible.
