The endless wait at Stavanger Airport, Sola towards Gdansk with Wizz Air doesn't have to go uncompensated. Let's explore your options.
Departing from Stavanger Airport, Sola, you are protected by EU law. The distance of 928 km determines the amount of your compensation. The first tier (≤1500 km) 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.

The impact of a strike on your Wizz Air compensation
Not every strike{s} release the airline from its duties. If your Stavanger → Gdansk delay was caused by an internal strike at Wizz Air, EU courts have recently ruled that compensation is owed.
Key distinction: if the delay is caused by ground services, Wizz Air is released from paying the 250€ indemnity, but not its care obligation.
What are your rights at Stavanger airport in case of prolonged wait?
Once the delay reaches the regulatory threshold, i.e. 2 hours for flights ≤1500 km, Wizz Air must automatically provide the regulatory care to all passenger{s} waiting at Stavanger.
Even in extraordinary circumstances, the right to assistance at Stavanger remains valid. The hotel is owed if Wizz Air pushes your flight by a day.
Steps: how to get your 250 € from Wizz Air?
Initiating a claim against Wizz Air for a flight from Stavanger to Gdansk can be complex if you act without help. The airline's team frequently will invoke extraordinary circumstances to dodge liability.

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

By choosing a "No Win, No Fee" service, you take no risk. If the 250€ aren't recovered, you owe nothing. As transparent as that.
What to do faced with silence or refusal from the airline?
