From Glasgow International Airport airport, your departure with Aer Lingus to Dublin didn't go as planned? Passengers have strong rights against carriers.
Directive 261/2004 is clear: for 297 km of flight, the company Aer Lingus is subject to a compensation obligation if the delay exceeds 3 hours or if the flight is cancelled.
Why are you entitled to 250 €?
The European Regulation EC 261/2004 is very strict regarding air passenger rights. The amount of fixed compensation does not depend on the price of your ticket, but only on the flight distance.

This flat-rate scale was designed to discourage airlines from changing their schedules without compelling reasons. Do not hesitate to assert this little-known but powerful regulation.
