Hello all

I'm new to the forum and I've been reading lots of different threads with interest, but can't seem to find an answer. The question I have is not BA related, but could well apply to BA (in theory). So apologies in advance for posting in here... but you guys seem to know your stuff!

The flight was Ethihad so not an EU airline. On one booking it was Abu Dhabi to Manchester and then Manchester to Inverness. Manchester to Inverness was operated by Flybe. The Abu Dhabi to Manchester leg was delayed by 8hours meaning the Manchester to Inverness connection was missed. Can EU 261/2004 apply for a claim against Flybe?

I guessed probably not, but does anyone else have a view?

Many thanks in advance.
