For a delay, the clock that matters is your arrival time at the final destination — the airline owes compensation once you land 3 or more hours late, measured when the doors open. Cancellations are covered when you got less than 14 days' notice, and denied boarding (overbooking) pays out immediately.

- Can I claim compensation for a delay at Dubrovnik (DBV)?
- Yes — flights departing Dubrovnik Airport are covered by EU261. If you arrived at your destination 3 or more hours late and it wasn't caused by extraordinary circumstances, you can claim €250–€600 (£220–£520) depending on distance, on any airline.
- How much is a delayed flight from Dubrovnik worth?
- Compensation is fixed by distance: €250 (£220) up to 1,500 km, €400 (£350) for 1,500–3,500 km, and €600 (£520) beyond 3,500 km. The price you paid for the ticket is irrelevant.
- Is it free to claim against my airline?
- Yes. You can claim directly with the airline for nothing. A no-win-no-fee service can handle it for roughly 25–35% of the payout — useful if the airline ignores you, but never required.
- What if my Dubrovnik flight was delayed by weather or a strike?
- Extraordinary circumstances like severe weather or air-traffic-control strikes remove the airline's duty to pay. But a strike by the airline's own staff does not — you're still owed. The airline must prove the cause.
