TP757 from CPH to LIS was slightly delayed so we missed our connection to TP1960 (LIS-OPO). As there was no availability on the next flight we were rebooked onto TP1966, which was subsequently delayed meaning we arrived into OPO 3,5 hours late.

Can we claim delay compensation under EU Regulation 261/2004?
If the stop in Porto was a layover (i.e. less than 24 hours) I think not - but since Porto was a destination I would think so.

If I am reading this correctly it indicates that Porto is a destination?
