EU Parliament approves air passenger rights overhaul, keeps three-hour delay payout
The European Parliament has approved a long-stalled overhaul of EU air passenger rights, keeping the three-hour delay threshold for compensation and adding new rules on hand luggage, rebooking and 'no-show' penalties. The changes, still needing final Council sign-off, will apply from 2027 to flights across the bloc, including at Luxembourg's Findel.
