What the number does and does not tell you
Roughly fewer than one flight in two thousand on this route crossed the 3 hour line in May 2026. A badly delayed flight is rare, which is worth knowing before assuming a claim is routine.
The CAA bands are shares of flights, not of passengers, and cancellations are counted separately rather than inside them. The CAA file does not state whether its delay figures were recorded at departure or at arrival, while the regulation measures delay at final-destination arrival, so the two are related but not identical. The figures also describe one month on one route: a record of what happened, not a prediction about any future flight.
What a qualifying delay on this route is worth
The great circle distance is 1,559 km, which puts the route in the 1,500 to 3,500 km band at £350 per passenger. The compensation rules are separate from the punctuality record: what matters for a claim is your own flight and its cause.
