Extraordinary circumstances and your right to compensation
Airlines regularly state that a flight is cancelled due to an ‘extraordinary circumstance’. In the event of such a circumstance they are not obliged to pay the financial compensation you would otherwise be entitled to. Regulation 261/2004 clearly specifies what constitute as an ‘extraordinary circumstance’. Examples are strikes, bad weather conditions, medical emergency landings and terrorism.
Example: Your Thomson flight from Manchester to Punta Cana, Mexico is cancelled because of a tropical storm. Poor weather conditions are considered to be extraordinary, therefor you are not entitled to compensation.
