Wizz Air Malta W46322 diverted to Rome due to Malpensa strike, 10-hour delay, no food or drinks. Can I claim EU261?
I was supposed to be on Wizz Air Malta flight W46322 from Palma de Mallorca to Milan Malpensa on 4 July 22:25.
The flight was supposed to arrive at 00:10 in Malpensa, but because of the strike affecting Malpensa MXP, the aircraft was diverted to Rome FCO before take off. Then, the take off itself was delayed to 00:23 5 July.
After landing in Rome at 01:36, Wizz Air arranged a bus to Milan Malpensa.
We finally arrived at Malpensa at around 10:00 5 July, roughly 10 hours later than scheduled.
During all of this:
- no food vouchers were given,
- no drinks or refreshments were provided,
- no other assistance besides the bus.
Can I still claim the EU261 due to this?
Any advice on the best way to handle the claim would be appreciated.
