  • It's interesting to note that while Traveldoc is aware of this, bizarrely Timatic doesn't seem to be, they only have a very small subset of the airside and landside exemptions, as far as I can see.

    Thank you! As I wrote in my other replies, this can also be confirmed in UK Immigration Rules Appendix V, V7.7 and V7.78: qna.files.parliament.uk/qna-attachments/433057/original/… Now I'm looking for ways to appeal to get a full refund + compensation as I have a significant amount of loss on my non-refundable connecting flight. I'm not sure where I can send my appeal to, maybe to the Norwegian Aviation Authority. Commented Jul 8 at 22:54

    @RoomTemperatureMilk EC261 claims must always be sent to the airline first, using the procedure that give for that. Only if the airline says no can you then go further. Or you could ask a specialised company to handle the claim for you. They will take their cut (about 30% of any compensation paid I believe), but they have quiet a bit of experience, and will probably tell you quite early if they believe you can get something or not.
