CE 261 payout: Luxair flight Luxemburg → Rome
No one enjoys being stranded in the terminal. If Luxair didn't honour its scheduled times for your Luxemburg - Rome flight, the law is on your side.
The good news is, for this journey of 987 km, Regulation CE 261/2004 obliges Luxair to provide financial compensation. On a short-haul flight like this, a specific compensation tier applies.
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.

- Arrival airport: Leonardo Da Vinci (Fiumicino) International Airport (FCO)
