Can QR limit that to 10 December 2020? I don’t think they are allowed to.
I don't think EC261 kicks in for our tickets. EC261 is only applicable for tickets with fares open to the general public. Our tickets are free - so EC261 definitely won't help us.
Furthermore, Qatar is a non-EU airline so only the flight from Europe to somewhere would be under EC261. The flight back to Europe is never under EC261.
