The endless wait at Newquay Cornwall Airport towards Duesseldorf with Germanwings doesn't have to go uncompensated. Let's explore your options.

This key legislation of European aviation rights covers nearly a billion passengers every year. Yet, over 85% don't bother because they don't know their rights.
How to know if the flight Germanwings Newquai - Duesseldorf is eligible?
Your entitlement depends on verifiable facts. Official flight records will confirm the exact time of door opening at Dusseldorf International Airport.
Be cautious: Germanwings may attempt to ask you to give up your rights. Don't sign anything without consulting an expert.
What are the conditions for Germanwings to compensate you?
-
Delay at arrival: You arrived with more than 3 hours delay at Duesseldorf.
-
Cancellation: The airline cancelled the flight less than 14 days before departure.
-
Overbooking: You were denied boarding against your will at Newquai airport.

Airline responsibility: The problem must be attributable to Germanwings (technical problem, sick crew, scheduling...).
Warning: Extraordinary circumstances (extreme weather preventing takeoff from Newquai, air traffic controllers' strike, political instability) exempt the airline from its obligation to compensate.
The impact of a strike on your Germanwings compensation
Be wary by Germanwings's evasive wording: a "spontaneous" or planned strike remains the managerial responsibility of the airline. On this short-haul, the internal/external strike distinction is the same.
Even if the 250€ are not owed due to an external strike at Newquai, care (food/accommodation) remains mandatory Germanwings. Keep this in mind.
What are your rights at Newquai airport in case of prolonged wait?
Consider the situation: stuck endlessly at Newquay Cornwall Airport, in uncertainty about the new departure. In this scenario, Germanwings cannot leave you without anything. CE 261 is clear.
The full package of assistance includes: refreshments, hot meals if the delay warrants it, two free communications, and accommodation plus transfers if the flight is postponed. Everything paid by Germanwings.

How long does it take to get the 250 € compensation?

What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
