Every British Airways flight we logged on 18 October 2026 that ran 3 hours or more late or was cancelled, and that UK or EU rules cover. Flights leaving the UK show when they leave and when they land, each in local time. How late is counted from when they land. 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.

Around this day

This is our own flight tracking, not CAA punctuality data: we sweep the airports we cover several times a day and log the flights that cross the 3-hour line or are cancelled outright. It is not every British Airways flight that day, only the ones landing at or leaving the airports we track that went wrong and that UK or EU rules reach.
