Why are you entitled to 250 €?

• Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
• Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Laage airport.

However, if air traffic controllers at Rostock-Laage Airport or security staff go on strike, this is indeed an force majeure situation. In this case, the 250€ cannot be claimed.
