Your Air Passenger Rights Whilst at Nuremberg Airport

In a nutshell, EC 261 ensures that you have rights in the event of a flight delay, cancellation, or overbooking. The law says that during a disruption, the airline must provide food, drinks, and accommodation if needed, especially if you have to wait for a replacement flight that is set to leave several hours later.

Compensation for Nuremberg Airport Canceled Flights
When there are Nuremberg Airport flight cancellations, you may be eligible for compensation provided that the airline was found to be responsible for the disruption.
Whether your flight qualifies or not is also dependent on when the airline canceled your flight — if you hear about it less than 14 days before departure, you are entitled to compensation. The amount that you receive will depend on the distance that your flight was supposed to cover.
But regardless of whether you get compensation or not, the airline is still obligated to provide you with care, which means that they must provide you with free meals, refreshments, and accommodation.
EC 261 also says that you must be given an alternative flight to your intended destination — provided you still wish to travel. You do have the option of getting a refund instead.

Compensation for Delayed Flights from Nuremberg Airport
If you’ve had delays in Nuremberg Airport that lasted more than 3 hours, you may qualify for compensation if the airline was found to be responsible for the disruption.
It’s important to remember when it comes to eligibility for compensation, it is the arrival time at your destination that matters, and not the departure time. This means that if you arrived at your destination more than 3 hours late, you and your fellow passengers could get compensated and each receive up to US$700.
Along with compensation, you also have the right to care, which means that the airline is responsible for providing you with meals and refreshments, as well as a free hotel if you are expected to wait for a long time.
