Your rights on this route

Every flight leaving the UK for Slovenia is covered by UK261, whichever airline operates it. Flights the other way, landing in the UK from Slovenia, are covered too if a UK or EU airline operated them; a return flight on a non-UK, non-EU carrier falls outside UK261, though the Montreal Convention and Slovenia's own rules may still give you a claim. See the full breakdown on the 3-hour rule. Cancelled instead of delayed? Broadly the same amounts apply under different conditions. See cancelled flight compensation.
