It's in UA's best interest to help you out here to avoid having to pay you €600 if your arrival is delayed by three hours. Only you can decide what your time is worth.
Alrighty thank you. UA also sent me an email offering a $175 flight credit - there is nothing in the language on this that suggest I will forfeit any EC261 claims but I just wanted to see if anyone has experience if I accept the credit and then file a claim?
