From our own tracking
Recent TUI Airways flights at Gatwick that ran late
Every TUI Airways flight landing at or leaving Gatwick we logged running 3 hours or more late, or cancelled, since August. Newest first, and only flights UK or EU rules cover. A cancelled row carries no figure because what it pays turns on the notice you were given. Amounts are per person on the booking (half on the longest flights that landed 3 to 4 hours late). Airlines can still dispute a claim by proving the cause was outside their control, so check yours for the real answer. We earn a fee if you claim through a Claim link.
