That is very interesting.. I am not a lawyer, but I am not fully clear on the circumstances. It seems in the case cited, the passengers were delayed and put on a later flight. However, in this case, the originally planned aircraft took off. Is this different? If not, can we now say that any delay over 3 hours merits €600 regardless of the cause unless it is "extraordinary circumstances"? That will be great if true...
