2. If I stay on the QF LHR-SIN flight delayed 11 hours, JL will need to rebook me for the original SIN-HND sector. If I can convince them to change the routing direct to my final destination and they agree (thus changing it from HND), am I still entitled to EC261 compensation?
(1) definitely no - also , not entirely convinced that you can decline it if the airline wishes to impose it
(2) not sure - possibly not
