That estimate adds up the 6
late flights the UK and EU rules cover, out of 14 that landed 3 hours or
more late at the airports we track. The other late flights were outside the rules, most often a flight
into the UK on an airline based elsewhere. It leaves out the 8 cancellations, because whether those pay depends on how
much notice passengers were given.
This isn't CAA punctuality data, it's our own live tracking of flights. We sweep
22 airports today: Heathrow, Gatwick, Manchester, Stansted, Luton, Edinburgh, JFK, Newark, Birmingham, Bristol, Glasgow, London City, Belfast International, Newcastle, Liverpool, Leeds Bradford, Belfast City, Aberdeen, East Midlands, Southampton, Jersey and Bournemouth.
That list grew from 8 on 27 August 2026, so a day before then covers the original eight only.
We also sweep the flights leaving Europe's 25 busiest airports.
It is not a national or worldwide count. Not every airport has a delay or cancellation
every day: 7 of them had a flight land 3 hours or more late or be cancelled on 5 November 2026, Birmingham, Newark, Glasgow, JFK, Gatwick, Heathrow and Stansted.
Every flight that
landed 3 hours or more late that day, or was cancelled, was logged
and checked against the UK and EU rules, the same ones the checker above uses.

Find your flight The 85 flights we hold a per-flight record of for 5 November 2026. Of these, 22 landed at the airports we swept that day, and the totals above count those. The other 63 left those airports: they were late or cancelled too, but the totals leave them out. This is our raw log, so it includes flights UK and EU rules do not reach. Flights we followed from the airport they left 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.

Longest wait
Biggest single delay
A United Airlines flight into Newark Liberty International Airport ran
8 hrs 59 min late
on 5 November 2026, the longest delay we logged that day.
These counts cover arrivals at the airports we swept that day, several times a day, not every
UK/EU flight. The flight table also lists the late or cancelled flights that left them, which these counts leave out. We track arrivals at 22 airports now; the list grew from 8 to 22 on
27 August 2026, so days before that cover fewer. The flights leaving Europe's
25 busiest airports are listed too, though not in these arrival counts. 5 November 2026 is complete. "Est. owed" applies the amounts the rules set
to each covered flight; airlines can still dispute individual claims by pointing to
extraordinary circumstances, so treat these as a strong steer, not a guarantee for any
one passenger.

Think you have a claim? Delays of 3 hours or more pay £220 to £520 each when the cause was within the airline's control, and you can claim years back. Check your flight free in 60 seconds, or hand it to a claim firm and let them do the chasing.
Claim firms take a success fee, typically 20-30% plus VAT, so you receive less than the figure above. A claim firm only gets paid if it wins.
We earn a fee if you claim through it.
