Master Tafflyer is flying this service inbound and will now miss his connection to tomorrow’s 12:15 BA952 LHR-MUC. Given the next BA MUC flight is at 16:50 this will potentially put him in scope for EU261.

There is a Lufthansa service from T2 at 13:50. Presumably merely asking to be put on this and being refused would activate EU261 under the new ruling, right?

The inbound aircraft, BA 227, was 1 hour 41 minutes late arriving.
