I'm just pointing out that disruptions are nothing unexpected if you travel often - you can't really expect extraordinary treatment. (Sure, in the EU at least you get food and lodging by law - but lounge access is a completely different beast.)
After all do you expect to be put in first class just because a weather or security issue caused your flight to be cancelled? You aren't the only person affected, airlines can't handle everyone like a snowflake.
- icebraining 9y agoWeather and security issue, maybe not, but otherwise, they're liable to pay 600€ in indemnity for a 3h+ delay on such a long flight. I think that should cover a few hours of lounge access.
- toweringgoat 9y agoNo. They. Aren't. EU regulations only affect EU carriers, or flights departing the EU. (And also Switzerland, possibly Norway.) Not applicable here. And if they had to pay that compensation (as explained they don't in this case), they definitely won't want to add bonus lounge access.

- icebraining 9y agoRight, I was talking about the EU rights, since you brought it up. Sorry for not being clear.
