What you can claim, by what happened
Delayed Munich to Krakow flight
Arrive 3 or more hours late and you are owed €250 (£220) — the same as a cancellation, confirmed by the Court of Justice in the Sturgeon case. The delay is measured when the doors open, not at departure.
Cancelled Munich to Krakow flight
A cancellation with under 14 days' notice pays €250 (£220) unless the replacement flight closely matched your original times. You also choose between a full refund within 7 days or rerouting.
Denied boarding on Munich to Krakow
Denied boarding because the flight was overbooked? You are owed €250 (£220) immediately, and unlike delays, the airline cannot blame extraordinary circumstances.
