That said the EWR-CHS is at 9pm (last flight) and is sometimes iffy - so, again the question about is that even part of EU261 as it is purely domestic after a 9hour layover - if that flight is cancelled and we fly the next morning does that count as EU261 or because SN got us to JFK and we had 9 hours, then everyone is off the hook as far as EU261?
With that huge amount of schedule padding you've created for yourself, I'm having trouble envisioning scenarios in which you'd arrive at your destination late enough for ec261 to be relevant.
