Look up EU passenger rights. I just got 600 euros cash for one of my flights with mechanical issues

Inbound to EU or outbound?

EU261 is your friend if flying BA or any other EU carrier. You are entitled to "duty of care" which it looks like they've done.

You are entitled to up to 600EUR in cash if delay at final destination is over 4 hours or something. However there is an exception for special circumstances (forgot the specific term).

I would consult the EU261 thread on Flyertalk or spend some time on Google to see if mechanical issues still qualify.

Ah damn. So it’s gotta be an EU carrier? I’m on Delta 🙄
