Flight delays and cancellations in February 2025

February 2025 brought widespread chaos to air travel across Europe, with numerous flight delays and cancellations throwing travel plans into disarray for thousands of passengers. What many travellers may not realise is that under EU Regulation 261/2004, they could be entitled to compensation of up to €600—even if the disruption occurred weeks or months ago.
In this article, we spotlight some of the most severely affected flights from February 2025. If you were on one of them and arrived at your destination late, you might still be eligible to file a valid claim. In Germany, travellers have up to three years to retroactively assert their rights.
