I was due to fly our from LGW to DXB on 31st December 2016 on flight EK012 which should have departed at 09:40. Due to fog in Dubai, the flight didn't depart until 17:30 (I was offered a GBP10 food voucher but nothing else).

My query is, I'm not sure if the fog itself was entirely to blame for the delay and wondered if I had any recourse for compensation? Incoming flight EK015 from DXB to LGW landed at LGW hours before incoming flight EK011 (i.e.the incoming aircraft going back to DXB). Also from memory, other flights out of Dubai to LHR weren't affected as badly

Thanks in advance for any advice
