Nice, Alpes-Maritimes → London: delayed or cancelled?
The NCE–LHR route is 1041 km great-circle. Arrive 3+ hours late at London — or get cancelled with under 14 days' notice — and UK261 entitles each passenger to £220, whatever the ticket cost, unless the cause was genuinely outside the airline's control.

GOOD TO KNOW
- Technical faults and crew problems pay out. Courts treat them as normal airline operations, not extraordinary circumstances.
- A family of four claims £880. Compensation is per passenger, and one letter covers the whole booking.
- Old flights count. Up to 6 years back in England & Wales, 3 in Germany, 5 in France — check the limitation period where you'd file.
- Vouchers are optional. You can insist on money — Article 7(3) requires your signed agreement for anything else.
