Does anyone know if BA is planning to pay EU261 compensation or will they claim that it's beyond their control (which arguably it was)?
BA548 was an hour late due to operational reasons ZO, so I'm assuming it's just congestion, and not directly related to yesterday's events. It may be indirectly linked in terms of additional pressure on ATC today from all the charter flights stuck all over the Med area.
