Regardless of how they count the distance, whether it's LON-STO or LHR-ARN, your flight is type 1 (1500km or less). The eligibility for compensation depends on whether you were rerouted or whether you took the original flight which was delayed. If you were rerouted and, in case of type 1 flight, arrived 2+ hrs later than originally scheduled you would be entitled to 250 eur compensation. This amount is halved if the arrival time is with a delay of less than 2 hrs. If you took the original flight and arrived with a delay of less than 3 hours, you would not be entitled to any compensation, only to duty of care whilst delayed.
