How much compensation do I get for a delayed flight in the UK?

For a delay of three hours or more at the final destination, passengers are entitled to fixed compensation: £220 for flights up to 1,500 km, £350 up to 3,500 km and £520 for longer flights. No compensation is due if the delay was caused by extraordinary circumstances that could not have been avoided. The rule covers departures from the UK and UK carriers flying into the UK.
